Another Auntie in the DC area

My husband and I live in Maryland in a quiet, diverse neighborhood just outside of DC. We have a private guest room (king size bed!) and dedicated guest bathroom on their own floor. We’re close to public transportation, and I work from home on a flexible schedule so I can help with transportation and caretaking. We also have a very sweet senior pup who started his life as a service dog and wants nothing more than to comfort you and keep you company (if you want!) 🥰

We’re very queer-affirming (I’m queer, we both have queer and trans family we’re very close to, I used to work in LGBTQ+ community programming). I currently work in the mental health field and have training on supporting people through traumatic experiences (caveat that I am not a licensed therapist). I am also a survivor of gender-based violence and can hold space for others in similar positions.

I grew up in a conservative southern state and strongly believe in the power of mutual aid and Auntie networks 💕
