I currently have four years of experience within my current field as a pediatric Occupational Therapist, but I am currently looking to work short-term in a different capacity as a caregiver or support person for children or teenagers with disabilities. Prior to working as an Occupational Therapist, I had been working as both a nanny and a babysitter for infants, children, and teenagers. I have experience with a wide range of disabilities and support needs.
