About Me

Family Cruise to Alaksa, Must see Butchart Garden
Family Cruise to Alaksa, Must see Butchart Garden

Special needs travel is very personal to me, because it’s part of my life as a mom. I have a daughter with special needs, so I understand the extra planning, the worries, and the “what if” questions that come with even thinking about a trip.

I also know how powerful it can be when you do go, when you see your child experience the world, smile in a new place, and make memories you weren’t sure were possible.That’s why I’m so passionate about helping other families travel confidently. I don’t just look at special needs as a note on a reservation.  I look at the whole picture. Mobility, sensory needs, routines, medical concerns, quiet spaces, airport assistance, transportation, and resort or cruise accessibility… all of those details matter.

My job is to walk through them with you so you feel prepared and supported from start to finish.In addition to my personal experience as a special needs mom, I’ve also completed special needs travel training. I use that knowledge to work closely with resorts, cruise lines, and tour operators to make sure we have the right accommodations in place for your family’s unique needs.

My goal is simple: I want you to be able to relax, enjoy your time together, and feel like you didn’t have to fight for every little thing along the way. Whether you’re dreaming of a beach getaway, a cruise, or a multigenerational family trip, I’ll be there to listen, advocate, and help create a trip that feels not just possible, but joyful.

If you or someone you love has special needs and you’ve been unsure about traveling, I’d be honored to help you take that next step and start creating the kind of memories you and your family truly deserve.

Alaska Cruise
Reviewed By Marilyn - Phoenix Az | Traveled to Alaska | USA
Shelly was amazing. I’m older and have a hard time getting around. Not only did she set me up with a scooter but a wheelchair as well for the excursion. We went through together looking at each excursion so I could choose which one was best for me. Shelly really made our cruise amazing!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Fiancés 40th Birthday
Reviewed By JocelynB - Tustin, ca | Traveled to Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico
Shelly was amazing from beginning to end with helping me plan my fiancés 40th Bday in Cancun. She made everything feel easy and stress free for me and all of our friends/family that went to celebrate. She always kept me in the loop and went above and beyond to make sure everybody was happy. I was so happy with her services that I’m now having her help plan my 40th and recommend her to everybody!

Great Family Vacation!
Reviewed By Kristina - Scottsdale, AZ | Traveled to Jamaica | Caribbean
We had the best time on our family trip. Shelly helped us get our flights, pick a hotel, arranged transportation to and from the airport, book excursions (we got to release baby sea turtles, it was incredible) and answered all our questions. She even reminded us to get our passports. No detail was left out. We will definitely use her for our next vacation!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
