Rhonda H. - San Antonio Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Rhonda H.

Part-Time, 10 + Years of Experience

I am a loving, patient, empty-nest mom. I raised a daughter with Asperger's syndrome. She also had mild Cerebral Palsy, significant developmental delays, and was bipolar. My mom had a stroke this year, and I cared for her while she regained her speech and mobility. I cared for my dad during his later stages of cancer. I have been a volunteer with youth and adults with mental illness and served on a non-profit board of directors. I enjoy and value the unique specialness of youth and adults with special needs.
Related Hobbies and Interests
I have an art background, love reading, watching the Food Network/History/Travel/PBS channels, movies, traveling, and taking glass fusing and precious metal clay classes. I attend Oak Hills Church and am one of the "younger" residents in a 55+ community.
