About Lavender
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi, I'm Lavender! I've been working with children for over a decade, both in caregiving and teaching roles, and I find so much fulfillment in doing so. I love watching children's minds grow and expand as they learn about the world around them, and I prioritize fostering that growth through safety and endless receptivity to their endless curiosity. I've worked with all ages and a variety of neurotypes and health conditions, including children with autism, ADHD, Down syndrome, and cerebral palsy. I have CPR and first aid training, as well as a food handler's card. I'm flexible, calm and level-headed in the middle of chaos, and I enjoy the challenge of learning and adapting to each individual child or family's needs. I understand that choosing someone to take care of your child is a deeply personal and important choice. I would love to talk with you about whether I might be the right fit for your family.

Lavender is fantastic! Lavender is reliable and her communication is top notch. And more importantly she’s great with my two girls. My girls have some slightly above average behavioral needs and Lavender consistently meets them with grace, patience, good humor and demonstrates real skill. I’d happily recommend Lavender to anyone.
