I am an energetic babysitter that has been working with children for the last 5 years. A bit about me is I am currently a speech pathology grad student and am passionate about working with special needs populations. I also worked at an autism clinic for the last 2. 5 years, have babysat children with autism, and taught swimming lessons to autistic children. I have a lot of experience in this area and am very knowledgeable about neurodiverse individuals. I also have a brother with a brain injury so have experience creating/implementing schedules and therapy in the home!

    I hired Olivia a few different times and she was very easy to contact, punctual, and wonderful with my special needs son. He was entertained all day and she was very knowledgeable about his needs and limited food options. 10/10 would recommend!
