Mercedes J. - Boston Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Mercedes J.

Part-Time, 6 Years of Experience

I have a passion for special needs children, mainly because my younger brother has special needs. Experiencing what it is like to deal with special needs children and the amount of attention they need is indeed a responsibility that I am willing to take to learn for my future and to get to experience the needs of children
Related Hobbies and Interests
I am a volunteer for a company called PediPathways in Quincy, MA, the company provides hospice care for children with disabilities and beyond. Being a volunteer makes me excited, mainly because I interact with infants and teenagers my age.
