Motivating others to accomplish their goals while providing an applicable learning environment has always been a passion of mine. I have desire to serve clients with varying disabilities as I believe it is important to not only promote inclusion, but focus on the "able" in disability. I have had 3 years of experience serving as a physical therapist aide and 10+ years of experience working with children in various settings. Creativity and innovation in the minds of children never ceases to amaze me. Through these experiences I have learned that I have a desire to teach my clients how to be physically active for life and enjoy activities of daily living.

    Michaela was hands down the best nanny we ever had! She helped the kids with online learning during Covid. She came up with fun and engaging activities for them. She kept them off screens! She helped us with light housekeeping and cooking. She helped me organize the house. She was amazing! I can't say enough good things about her.
