About MomNextDoor | Respite Care

Hi, I'm Domina

Hi, I'm Domina, and I founded MomNextDoor in 2025 to provide respite care for families who need it most.

For the past 20 years, I've worked with children, teens, and adults with special needs—individuals with autism, developmental delays, and complex support needs. I've learned that the best care isn't about following a script. It's about listening, adapting, and showing up with patience every single day.

I know how hard it is to trust someone new with your family member. That's why I meet every family in person before we start. I want you to feel confident that your loved one will be safe, respected, and truly cared for.

I'm First Aid and CPR certified with a current Criminal Record Check. But beyond credentials, I bring something more important: a genuine commitment to helping families like yours get the break you deserve.

What MomNextDoor Is (And Isn't)

MomNextDoor IS:

✓ Specialized respite care for special needs individuals
✓ In-home, personalized care
✓ For caregivers who need temporary relief
✓ Flexible scheduling based on your family's needs
✓ Expert care from someone with lived experience

MomNextDoor ISN'T:

✗ Daily daycare or childcare center
✗ Full-time nanny service
✗ Behavioral therapy or clinical treatment
✗ School pick-up/drop-off service
✗ Care while you work full-time

If you're looking for daily childcare while you work, a traditional daycare or nanny may be a better fit. But if you need respite—time for yourself, an appointment, or simply a break—I'm here to help.
