About Valerie
Experience: 10 yrs
I have 18 years experience caring for children of all ages (newborn-19.) I am experienced with special needs children including ADHD, Autism Spectrum, Asperger's, FAS, Cerebral Palsy, Diabetes, Down Syndrome, and severe food allergies. I am CPR and 1st Aid Certified, Registered with Trustline and LiveScan, Clean background check. I have safe, reliable, and insured transportation. I enjoy spending my days with children. We will keep busy by going to parks, libraries, activities, play dates, walks, games, arts and crafts, baking, cooking, cleaning, running errands. I have experience as a part time special needs para-educator for Santa Clara unified school district. I am currently seeking school breaks, and summer vacation. I am aware of what is needed on a daily basis and can be trusted to accomplish those goals.

Valerie is very dependable, and her ability to take care of things that come up allowed us to be stress free. She knows what to do without a lot of guidance and always tries to make things fun such as squeezing in some playground time between school assignments. You'll be happy to have Valarie help you!
