Hello, my name is Aiona, I have 17 years of experience working with special needs individuals and I am also a parent to a child with special needs. I have been First Aid and CPR certified. I am also experienced in properly administering medications. At my previous jobs I was in charge of the fun activities. I organized and executed several fun day trips as well as a few week long trips. I also seeked out volunteer sites, and assisted with activities of daily living. I really enjoy helping others! It makes me happy. Hire me and you won't regret it! I promise!

    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.
