With years of experience as a private nanny, daycare teacher, and behavioral health and social services professional, Linda founded La Casita de Linda to create a nurturing space for children to grow and thrive. She worked with infants and toddlers, specializing in infant care, sleep training, and developmental support through play. Her background also includes five years in the First Five program, helping families in low-income communities with parenting, tantrum management, positive discipline techniques, and addressing social determinants of health.
