I have been a Public Health Nurse with the City of Toronto for about 10 years. I had the privilege to visit families in their homes and provide one on one parenting education, support and counselling. I also enjoyed facilitating parenting programs and supporting Ontario Early Years Centres. I am a parent myself and know that parenting can be challenging. I have worked as an Intake Public Health Nurse for over 7 years and provide service over the phone, via email and through eChat. I continue to learn from the families I service though hearing about their unique experiences and circumstances. I help families by linking them to Toronto Public Health services and programs and community resources.
