Hi! I am a patient, caring babysitter who has 7 years of babysitting experience. I've worked with children with Autism, ADHD, Down Syndrome, Selective Mutism, as well as physical disabilities. Most recently I worked at the Keswell School in Manhattan as an ABA instructor for children with autism. I have also worked as a nanny for 3 years for a 9-year-old child with cerebral palsy. She was nonverbal and unable to walk unassisted. I assisted with feeding, repositioning, diaper changes, and home therapy throughout covid, as well as leading activities throughout the day. I am also currently studying towards a doctorate in occupational therapy.
