Experience: 10 yrs
I'm an energetic, reliable and passionate person who's life is dedicated to children of all ages. My journey began when I was 12 years old babysitting family and friends. I had my first son and while being a single mom, became a toddler teacher at a daycare, responsible for 9 little humans, babysitting on the side and working as a nanny to a wonderful child with autism. I've raised four boys and for 19 years I've been an ABA para in Boston from K0-12th grade. I am a Registered behavior technician for 10 years now. I love working with families and helping their children who have a diagnosis of autism work on life skills and building their independence. I'm the one that kids gravitate to at parties/events, often being that person sitting on the floor playing cars, Barbie's or whatever their interests. I could be a wonderful addition to your family. I pride myself on being able to take care of all children from newborns to highschool, with or without disabilities, challenging or easy.
Kari has been my go to caregiver, especially for overnights. As a single parent who travels for work, this has been indispensable. My kids love her, and i think the dog does too.
