Hi! I'm from Alaska and love the outdoors and nature! I have experience working with children from toddlers to high schoolers, and I enjoy leading activities that encourage movement, creativity, and mental wellness, always keeping safety as my top priority. I've worked in home and clinical settings as well as a camp leader in a larger group environment. I also love caring for dogs and have a good understanding of different breeds and how to keep them happy and healthy. Along with child and pet care, I’m happy to help with meal prep, light cleaning, and home organization to make things run a little smoother for families. I want to be a caregiver because it’s a wonderful way to support families while gaining great experience with kids. I’m finishing my Psychology degree at NAU and plan to pursue pediatric Occupational Therapy, so every opportunity to work with children helps me grow and gain new perspectives in that field!
