We really struck the jackpot with Aleida! Not only does she have such a kind, loving soul, but she is an overall joy to have around. Both of my kids adore her, and they each have their own special relationship with her. She is amazing with my Special Needs son. He is on the spectrum and she really just connects with him at his level. Her patience and empathy are insane. She is amazing at managing the emotions of both of my kids and making them both feel see . For anyone else who has a special needs child and a neuro typical one, you know the struggle with attention for both . She really puts them at ease by knowing exactly how to give to each of them in their own unique way . I have a seven and nine-year-old and she's been with us for the last two years. I couldn't speak more highly of her and hope that she's with us forever. She's like family and I'm grateful for Care.com to have connected us.
