Live in a city (that's got it's perks!) an hour outside of Toronto (back with my parents because rent ain't cheap!). Used to live in Toronto for 6 years and let me tell you, it's stolen a big piece of my heart!

I've worked as a nanny for many years now and with a few different families. My main area of expertise though, is working with kids/teens with disabilities. I've worked in schools, group homes and with families and now work in behaviour therapy for kids with autism. It's a very fulfilling (sometimes tiring) line of work!

I absolutely love to travel and wish I had time/money for more. I've also been lucky enough to do a bit of travelling as a nanny and have had some unique experiences in doing so- from staying at a historic mansion in a family home in London to being immersed into a tiny community and international school in Costa Rica.

Currently, taking a TEFL course and hoping to make my way to Peru in the next year and stay for awhile!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Expanding my circle of acquaintances, connections and friends around the world. Getting a fuller, more real and natural experience of the places that I visit. Travelling in a more financial-friendly matter. Offering up my home and an experience to people who want to visit my incredible country and the incredible cities within.
