This role has taught me how to support and encourage independence in children while meeting them where they are. It’s also given me strong skills in G-tube care and troubleshooting, following individualized routines (ISP), supporting PT and OT goals, creating engaging arts and crafts, and reading nonverbal communication and body language.

I have basic training in braille and sign language and am always eager to keep learning. I am also First Aid trained and prioritize safety while creating a calm, supportive environment for every child. While my professional experience is with younger children, I’m open and comfortable working with kids ages 2–12. I bring a patient, adaptable, and nurturing approach to each child’s unique needs.
