United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a compassionate, dependable caregiver with over 5 years of experience supporting children and youth in educational and home care settings. I focus on safety, relationship-building, and growth through patience, structure, and empathy, and I’m known for reliability and strong attention to detail.
In my current role, I provide daily care for a child with a hearing disability, ensuring a safe, nurturing environment while supporting medication administration, feeding, personal hygiene, and independence through hearing aid and communication support. Previously, I cared for children ages 1–3 through play-based teaching that promoted early milestones, and I also tutored K–5 students by creating a supportive space for homework, academic enrichment, and STEM-based projects.
