I am a college senior majoring in Criminal Justice at Texas State University. I am a kind and spirited individual who doesn't mind sitting knee deep in craft glue and popsicle sticks. Some of my hobbies include reading, cooking, and diy projects.

Compassionate caregiver with a strong background in nutrition and wellness. Children’s book publisher and devoted mother to a neurodiverse son, bringing patience, understanding, and creativity to every family. Experienced with children, seniors, light household support, and creating a safe, nurturing environment where everyone feels valued and cared for.

Terri has such a way with children, each child that she Mentor, teach or babysit becomes her own. I've witnessed her teach a 3 year old to read and a 7 year old to write a story that was later published as a book. She have the patience, ability and tender loving care that helps children learn and excell. I highly recommend and trust her with the position of teacher, tutor, babysitter and care giver.
