Jessica L. - Pittsburgh Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Jessica L.

Part-Time, 1 Year of Experience

I have experience working with Autistic children in multiple settings. I have provided baby sitting, VB/ABA sessions and also companionship for special needs children. I am gentle, patient and warm. I love to lend a helping hand and I have a big heart. When I am working with a child, I am not only teaching them about our world, but learning things from them as well. They can teach us about the world from a different angle that is entirely beautiful and unique. I have excellent references and please feel free to contact me with any questions. Thank you for reading my profile.
