My grandmother was a health care worker that worked with both adults and children with special needs. I become a substitute teacher and fell in love with teaching and nurturing children that have special needs. I discovered my passion for special education as a teachers assistant for children on the autism spectrum. Since then I have worked with countless children with various needs. I have since obtained my bachelors in Psychology and special education.

    I highly recommend Farisa as a babysitter! She is absolutely amazing with children, and provided exceptional care for my kids. From the moment she arrived, I felt completely comfortable leaving my children in her care. Farisa was always punctual, professional, and took the time to get to know my children and their specific needs. She was patient, kind, and genuinely engaged with my kids, which helped them feel at ease and excited to spend time with her. Farisa was also very creative with activities, and found fun ways to keep my children entertained throughout the day. From arts and crafts to outdoor adventures, she always came prepared with activities that were both educational and enjoyable. Overall, I would highly recommend Farisa to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable babysitter. She is top-notch in every way and exceeded all of my expectations. Thank you, Farisa, for taking such great care of my children!
