Experience: 20 yrs
For two decades, I've been dedicated to nurturing children's growth and development. My passion stems from the positive impact I can make in their lives. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teens, and am comfortable caring for up to two children at a time. I also have experience of 10 years with children with disabilities such as autism. I'm patient, friendly, and always follow the parents' lead when it comes to household rules and communication preferences, providing updates via text, phone, or in person. I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational games. I also have First Aid Training and CPR Training, and have taken Early Child Development Coursework. I'm happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, and crafts. I believe in creating a fun and supportive environment where children can thrive, and I look forward to the possibility of bringing my experience and care to your family.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Denise in a professional setting supporting children with a wide range of needs, and through that experience we also became friends. Denise is truly wonderful with children, responsible, compassionate, and incredibly patient. She has a natural ability to connect with children, making them feel comfortable, safe, and understood. I have seen firsthand how attentive and caring she is. I would confidently recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, nurturing, and genuinely dedicated to caring for children.
