Hi! I am a student at EWU and the mother of three beautiful children, including our newly adopted daughter. My children are older now and I am excited to start providing childcare again! I grew up with three siblings with special needs and I have a son on the autism spectrum, so I have experience with children and adults who are differently-abled. I worked for MHMR in Texas providing respite services for adults with special needs. I assisted in teaching students in Elementary schools and I have provided childcare for several families for more than 10 years, including help with homework and infant care. I love introducing crafts and learning activities while caring for children and I get along with all kinds of pets! I can provide light housekeeping and meal-prep if needed. I look forward to meeting your family!

Hello there! I enjoy working as a sitter because it allows me the privilege of witnessing children grow into their unique selves. There's something wonderful about being part of their growth and seeing them become comfortable and confident in their own skin. What sets me apart is my work with preschoolers, which focuses on language and literacy development. I love crafting activities that connect with stories and actively engaging children to think. I believe this approach establishes a strong foundation for a lifetime of learning by fostering a love for words and stories at an early age.
