Certification N/A
As a retired government employee and a devoted parent of three grown children, I bring a lifetime of experience, patience, and dedication to everything I do. I taught all of my children to swim at an early age, and over the years, I have shared that same skill with numerous relatives, neighbors, and friends in my home pool. My hands-on experience and passion for water safety have helped many children build confidence in the water. In addition to my swimming experience, I currently work part-time with children on the autism spectrum, where I provide support with understanding, empathy, and consistency. My background in both public service and special needs care makes me especially attuned to safety.
