Kathryn D. - Saint Louis Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Kathryn D.

Part-Time, 0 Years of Experience

I have a 14-year-old with Asperger's, which has helped me not only understand his individual needs, but has drawn me to others with special needs. I have also been around a number of special needs kids/adults all my life. I believe my patience and nurturing abilities would be a fantastic fit for someone with special needs in need of a caregiver. I am a good cook and enjoy spending quality one-on-one time with people. I am a quick learner and a great communicator. I have a huge desire to make a positive impression on the lives of others in need.
Related Hobbies and Interests
I enjoy spending time with my family and pampering others. I like a good movie-whether watching at home or at the theater. I truly enjoy cooking! I also enjoy playing and/or watching my kids the pool during the summer season.
