Every summer I volunteer at a special needs camp in Wisconsin called, Camp SOAR. I get special needs kid and have to take care of him/ her for one week. I have to help them get dressed, help them eat if needed, bathe them, and all the little things they need help with. I am very passionate about helping special needs kids and caring for them. they just put a smile on my face because they are usually always so happy and caring. I id not get paid at Camp SOAR, it is a volunteer camp, no compensation.

    Alyssa is my younger cousin but also my kids only babysitter since they were newborns. My kids are now 8 and 4 and still love when Alyssa watches them. She is great with kids of all ages, very patient, responsible, and always willing to help whenever she can. She has no problem getting their meals ready or sitting on the floor playing a game she knows will take forever to finish! She is great and I think anyone would be pleased with her skills as a caregiver.
