My name is Tia C. I am currently a nursing student with a strong foundation in patient-centered care and a genuine commitment to supporting children’s well-being and development. I am CPR/BLS certified and bring both clinical awareness and a calm, attentive presence into the home. I understand the importance of reliability, structure, and clear communication, especially within busy professional households.
