Profile

I am a stay-at-home dad looking for opportunities to provide childcare. I love working with children and have spent 5+ years working professionally in education and child welfare. I have many years of experience in working with children on the autism spectrum and those with intellectual and physical disabilities. I am experienced in tutoring, crisis management and classroom management, and I have studied child development and curriculum development. I also have experience with caregiving for elderly adults and adults with disabilities. For adults I have provided and am comfortable providing medication management, meal prepping, transportation, household chores, and errands. I am trained in CPR, I accept cash and Venmo, and I am happy to provide references upon request!
