Andrea P. - Portland Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Andrea P.

Full-Time, 1 Year of Experience

I have worked with children with a variety of disabilities. I baby-sat a girl with cerebral palsy and Down syndrome. I also worked at a special ed camp during summer 2007. I worked at Camp Kiwanis and was assigned two campers. One camper was an individual with autism, and the other camper was an individual with mental disability. I also plan to get my master's in special education and will start in the summer of 2010.
Related Hobbies and Interests
In the camp I worked at, we participated in all sorts of activities with the children and adults with special needs. I love to teach, play games, go for walks, or anything the individual wants to do.
