Martina J. - Saint Louis Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Martina J.

Part-Time, 2 Years of Experience

I have spent two years caring for children with special needs, primarily children with Autism spectrum disorders. I have discovered a passion for the special needs community in the last few years through exposure in my college major, but, most importantly, through understanding those individuals and families that live with special needs on a daily basis.
Related Hobbies and Interests
I enjoy running, sports, traveling, cooking, culture, and photography.
