    Aiona worked with my 26 year old son with non-verbal autism for about 3 years and was wonderful with him. They had a special bond and she took wonderful care of him. She is very understanding of and sensitive to the needs of adults with autism and I would strongly recommend her to take care of an adult with autism. I always valued her and her deep friendship with my son and I always felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care in any situation.
