I’m currently studying special education, which has helped me build strong skills in supporting kids with different learning styles, needs, and personalities. I love creating a safe, fun, and positive environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. Whether that’s helping with homework, doing crafts, playing games, or keeping a consistent routine, I always try to meet kids where they are and make the time we spend together meaningful. I’m responsible, attentive, and big on communication with parents, so you can feel confident your child is in good hands.

Hi! I’m a 36y/o LCSW. Recently relocated from CT to Maine. Ultimately looking for a job in my field, but it’s important I take my time finding the right fit. I work in a challenging field, and I want to be thoughtful in finding a population I’m passionate about supporting, under an administration I trust. So, I figured I’d pursue other passions in the meantime. I have always adored infants. I worked in a daycare in high school, was a full time nanny during college, and now I am lucky to be a chosen auntie to MANY littles. My best friend actually had twins the day before Thanksgiving 2024 and after coming up to visit 1x/month the entire first year of their lives, I figured it was time to make the move! I would love an opportunity to care for young little loves while I settle in in Portland :)
