Hi! I'm a patient, reliable, and flexible caretaker. I've been watching children on and off since I was 12 years old. The last three years, I have worked with 4 different families, kids aged 3 months to 8 years. Before that, I was taking care of adults with developmental disabilities for 6 years. I am well versed in conflict resolution/challenging behaviors and will make sure your children are taken care of. I am organized, positive, and dependable. I am creative and like to make every day a little bit more fun.

No documents were submitted and no further communication occurred despite multiple follow-ups. Reliability and follow through concerns prevent recommendation for roles requiring consistency and dependable communication
