About Rachel

I've been caring for children for over three decades, inspired by a special bond I formed while caring for my younger sister with special needs. I'm patient, friendly, and approachable, and I believe in gentle guidance and structure for children's well-being. I prefer to follow parents' preferred communication methods to keep them updated on their child's day or any issues. I'm comfortable caring for several children at a time, and my experience ranges from infants(including preemies) to teens. I enjoy playing board games and puzzles, educational games, arts and crafts, dress up, swimming, nature exploration. My background includes college-level coursework in Early Childhood Development. I have experience with special needs/ASD. I am also trained in CPR and First Aid (other extensive medical training), I have a clean background check and driving record. I can help with cooking/meal prep, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel. I am available for overnights/live in and relocation.
