Respite Care

I am a Paediatric Nurse that works with medically fragile children
Hello, My name is Samantha and I am an RPN and RN graduate interested in providing respite care for your child. I currently work at a children's hospice/respite facility, and have 2 years of experience providing respite care privately for children with behavioural needs and autistic tendencies. I would absolutely love the opportunity to learn more about your family, and the care your son/daughter needs to develop to their full potential. Sincerely, Samantha

Student looking to provide part time care.
Hello! My name is Hayley and I am a 20 year old student. I have just recently moved to downtown Toronto from the rainy west coast. I am very experienced in special needs care! For most of my life my Mom has been a high school special needs teacher and has done lots of out side of class work. So it has always been a part of my life. Since the age of 15 I have done respite care on my own with multiple kids with different skills and abilities. I took them to appointments, planned activities for us, etc. During high school I was a coach with a special need soccer program. Along with that I also worked in a special needs day summer camp.

Student Seeking Summer Position with Experience with Special Needs Children
I am currently a recent graduate of the University of Alberta with a Biology/Psychology degree. I have worked as an Senior Resident Assistant in Lister Hall, a Respite Care Worker for a young adult with Autism Spectrum Disorder, and I volunteer with the Steadward Centre teaching swimming lessons to children and adolescents with physical and mental disabilities. I am a certified lifeguard with CPR-C training and I also have experience dealing safety management working on patrol in residence after hours. I have my own vehicle and a Class 5 Drivers Licence. I have worked at a summer day camp in the past and was in charge of groups of 5-10 children at a time. I am a hard worker and I hope to pursue a career in rehabilitation medicine and am looking for a summer job that provides life experience. My wage is negotiable and I am always looking to learn if your child has conditions that need extra support. Some of my hobbies are dancing, singing, playing instruments, playing sports, and reading. I like the outdoors and trying new things. In my spare time, I am also employed by the Edmonton Eskimos as a CFL Cheerleader.

Passionate about providing quality care for individuals with special needs
I've been a complex needs teacher with the CBE for the past three years. Previous to that I have seven years of experience providing respite care in both home and community settings for individuals with a variety of complex needs. I also have experience in delivering ABA and speech therapy programs under the direction of a senior therapist. I am currently able to provide respite care and/or educational services a few hours per week or month (evenings/weekends). I'm also interested in providing overnight/weekend care in my home 1-2 weekends per month. I do have a large, friendly dog, so any individual requiring care in my home would have to be comfortable with dogs.

I am currently a Nursing student entering my 4th year and work during the summer months at a children's hospital providing Respite care to children with complex disabilities. Through this experience I have learned the skills required to not only provide the personal care measures these children need, but also provide the emotional support they need for fun and healthy development.
