I love children and helping them to shine! Currently, I am a full-time teacher and I teach 4th grade in Kailua. I have been teaching there for 10 years. I have a son of my own, who is 19 years old now. Since my own son was a baby, we did baby yoga and Kindermusik. I am extremely nurturing and hands on. I am also great at doing housework, laundry, meal prep and errands needed to support the families I serve as well! I have extensive knowledge of child development. My love for working with children on the Autism Spectrum blossomed in 1999, where I began working as a Discrete Trial Therapist in California. As I completed my Bachelor's in Psychology and moved on to obtaining my teacher's credential and Master's degree in Education, I continued working in the field as a Case Supervisor. I I have extensive education and training in BCBA (Board Certified Behavior Analysis) Behavior management, Discrete Trial, and Social Skills Facilitation.
