I’m extremely proud of my first set of twins having graduated college in 2025. They are my best references;) I also ran a dog walking/cat care business in SF for 13 years. Comfortable with most pet care. I love to spark creativity by helping children discover new things each day through play, reading, music, singing aloud, creative arts and limiting screen time. I’m committed to promoting a child’s physical, mental, and emotional development. ​I supply all the loving care/support (lots of hugs and snugs) while making sure to meet disciplinary and educational goals for each child.

I am a credentialed Special Education Teacher and private tutor with thirteen years of teaching experience. I have worked with kids with a range of needs, and specialize in students with learning disabilities, ADHD, ASD, and 2E children. I have also been a sitter and nanny for many more years. I have significant experience with kids from newborn infants through high school age. As a sitter, I’m incredibly attentive and engaging with kids. I love to read with them, play games, do arts and crafts, play outside, and cook/ bake. I’m a great cook, and am happy to do meal prep services in addition to childcare as well. I have a B.A. from UC San Diego in International Relations, and a Master's Degree from CUNY Brooklyn College in Special Education. In my free time, I love to cook and bake, create pottery, spend time outside and on the water, and travel to new parts of the world!
