Iβve never had a child not like me, or an adult for that matter :). I have the enthusiasm and curiosity of a child and they recognize that. Iβm an artist and entrepreneur, sober, and passionate about life and community. I love teaching art and go above and beyond childcare. I have professional, cleaning experience and have been an assistant to many families and professionals in the past.I work part time as a somatic therapist and love psychology and helping people heal their trauma. This line of work has given me the interpersonal skillset to listen and attune to the needs of others & have empathy and compassion while navigating challenges.Iβm naturally very grounded, with a strong sense of self. Although I take everything I do seriously Iβm also funny, playful and kind. Iβd love to support you and your children and look forward to learning about your needs! Iβm an open book so feel free to ask any questions.I have cared long term for children ages 2-12.
