I'm a former elementary teacher with a special education license. I'm passionate about supporting children and young adults with complex developmental and communication needs.Over the past two years, I've pursued intensive training in primitive reflex integration, spelling-based communication, and neurodevelopmental movement. This work has deepened my understanding of how movement, communication, and nervous system development intersect—and how powerful it can be when families have consistent, informed support.I'm looking for a family with a special needs child or young adult who would benefit from individualized attention and a caregiver trained in these approaches. While my current role is part-time, I'm drawn to a nanny position where I can use my specialized skills in the context of building a real relationship with your child. You'd have a trained educator who understands both day-to-day care and the neurodevelopmental practices that can support growth in communication, coordination, and confidence.This role would allow me to keep my clinical skills sharp while I develop my longer-term vision of bringing this work to more families.I'm energized by families who want more than traditional childcare—who are willing to think creatively about what their child needs and interested in approaches grounded in neurodevelopment. If that sounds like your family, I'd love to talk.

Hi! My name is Journee, and I'm a compassionate and attentive caregiver with a strong background working with infants and children. I currently work as a newborn hearing screener, where I care for and assess newborns using gentle, non-invasive techniques. Additionally, I am an ABA (behavioral) technician working with children with various developmental needs. I spend my time tailoring 1:1 care to aid children in their day to day lives with the hopes of progressing development and independence. These roles have strengthened my patience, attention to detail, and ability to maintain babies and children calm, safe, and comfortable. I also have personal experience caring for my autistic cousin, which has helped me develop a deeper understanding of patience, flexibility, and meeting children where they are. I'm mindful of different needs, communication styles, and the importance of creating a calm, supportive environment for every child. I truly value giving children the space to freely be themselves—to explore, play, and express their personalities—while still providing structure and safety. Whether I'm caring for a newborn or an older child, I focus on being present, nurturing, and responsive to their individual needs. Families can count on me to provide a safe, calm, and positive environment where their children are cared for with both professionalism and genuine warmth. I also have my own car if transportation is ever necessary.
