Christi K. - Denver Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Christi K.

Full-Time, 5 Years of Experience

I worked as a care provider for developmentally disabled and special needs clients for the state of Colorado for two years, leaving that job less than a year ago to pursue other interests. I also worked with severely autistic twins for about a year, and a baby with many health issues for two years.
Related Hobbies and Interests
I really enjoy reading books and I love to play piano and sing. I also enjoy going on walks and going to the park. I play on the playground equipment right alongside the children!
