Hello there! I have been caring for children for over 35 years, special needs for 25 and was an ABA technician in the public school sector working with children with ASD for 18. The last 2 yrs I have been counseling in middle school for children with anxiety, depression, and other mental health, concerns. . I raised 3 wonderful boys (32, 30 and 26 years) and care for my 9-month-old grandson, all of whom are my greatest gifts. Prior to this, I was a licensed daycare provider with the OFC and owned/managed a home daycare center in Wrentham for 14 years, caring for children ages newborn-12 yrs. I also raised 3 furry friends, 2 beagles and a dachshund for 15 years. Lastly, I have done senior care and cared for my mom for many years before bridging hospice. Whether it's children, adults, or seniors, caring for human kind is my passion in life. My mission is to continue this trajectory and I look forward to helping yours going forward. Kindly, Maura
