Additional Information

I'm a writer, so with your permission, I will send pics and let you know about their milestones and victories so we can celebrate together!

I can cook for even the pickiest eaters, as well. My dad, who is a savant ran the police department in Newport Beach, CA and taught me to be hyper vigilant and the voice to the voiceless. He taught me to always do the right thing even if it is hard.


My mom got her BA in early childhood development and taught me so much. We always had people down on their luck living with us. She taught me how to counsel and work with kids at an early age.


I come from a huge family and know how to multitask so no kid will be ignored.inadore the kids I watch and can move my schedule around.
