Lavonna K. - Orlando Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Lavonna K.

Part-Time, 10 + Years of Experience

I have experience caring for a 6 1/2-year-old boy with suspected Autism, seizure disorder and other health problems. I have provided care for a wonderful lady for 13 years ( recently deceased) who suffered from multiple health problems including Alzheimer. I am also experienced caring for children with Hydrocephalis, ADHD, Asthma, and mental health issues. Every person I provide care for is treated with patience, dignity, respect and love. I value the opportunity to make a positive difference in every life I touch.
Related Hobbies and Interests
I am an avid reader and love to teach/read to my clients. I love taking walks, playing inter-reactive games and being a good listener.
