I grew up in the enchanting Sonoran Desert, where the beauty of nature and mystical skies sparked a lifelong connection to the world around me. From an early age, I was drawn to music, dance, and the arts, which naturally alligned with my passion for working with children. I became a career nanny, helping to raise children from infancy and earning a reputation as a “child whisperer.” While some describe my presence as magical, my true strength lies in a grounded yet playful approach that blends practical skills with deep compassion to support families.

With over 25 years of experience in family support, I specialize in holistic solutions for real-life challenges such as picky eating, sibling dynamics, conflict resolution, and sleep issues. I am a Certified Parent Coach through the Jai Institute for Parenting and currently studying in the Nurture Neuroscience Practitioner Program with Greer Kirshenbaum, PhD. This science-based training is deepening my understanding of brain development and the nervous system and giving language and research to what I’ve been practicing intuitively for years. It confirms what my own experience has shown me time and again: that attuned, responsive caregiving doesn’t just feel good—it builds resilience and lays the foundation for lifelong mental health.

As a lifelong learner, I’m always deepening my understanding of child development and family systems. My background in the healing and performing arts, including massage therapy, energy healing, musical theater, and dance, enriches my ability to support the physical and emotional well-being of both children and adults.

Identified as gifted at a young age, I spent years training in creative problem-solving and became highly skilled at finding innovative, practical solutions. This allows me to offer practical, custom solutions that inspire growth, foster connection, and bring ease to even the most complex dynamics. Now living in Topanga Canyon, I draw inspiration from the surrounding natural beauty and eclectic community, infusing my work with a sense of connection and the healing power of nature.

I believe in treating every individual as part of the universal human family, extending love, respect, and compassion to all. My work is dedicated to creating a ripple effect that touches not only individual families but also the greater collective to foster a more peaceful world. I practice connected, empowered relating and aim to ensure that every person feels seen, supported, and valued in their journey to lasting harmony.

Whether I’m supporting children, families, or individuals of any age, my purpose is to hold a loving space for healing and to offer care that nurtures both heart and soul with compassion and presence.
