About Heather

I have 5+ years of professional experience working with infants through teens in various settings, such as teaching in childcare centers, nannying, babysitting, and tutoring. One of my passions is working with kids who have additional support needs. I have experience supporting autistic children who are non-speaking or who have PDA autism, as well as with kids who have ADHD, OCD, and PTSD. I provide neuro-affirming, trauma-informed care. I have experience creating child-led curriculum from a philosophy that draws on Waldorf, Reggio Emilia, and Montessori. I'm also comfortable with supporting cyber learners and homeschoolers. I'm comfortable with all pets. I have experience with potty training, biting, and reluctant nappers. I'm happy to help with meal prep and general housekeeping. I have experience with food allergies.
