Hello! I just wrapped up 2 years working in SB as a youth treatment counselor for kids 10-18 struggling with drug/alcohol addictions and will be starting graduate school at Antioch University to be an LMFT this fall. I have been babysitting for the past 7-8 years and am experienced with ages ranging from 7-16 (as well as a sis 5 yrs younger) . I also have a wide range of experience working with special needs kids through my leadership in a "Peer Mentor" program with my high school for 2 years, assisting fellow students with cognitive disabilities. I also grew up teaching a sailing summer camp, so I am highly experienced when it comes to participating in outdoor activities with children. Between my strong communication skills, CPR AED certification, experience in a clinical setting with children, and deep level of compassion, I can ensure you that your kids will be in safe hands and will love spending time with me. I look forward to assisting your family with your childcare needs!
