Growing up my Mom was always sick. I had to help my Dad take care of her when he was working. She had to relearn how to walk when I was in the 1st grade among many other medical issues she had over the years. She had feeding tubes, ports in her chest & I helped her with all of it. I also, have been a nanny to children with special needs. Mainly autism & ADHD. I have two sons with ADHD myself so knowing how to handle situations is not new to me. I love to help & nurture people. It gives me a great sense of accomplishment to know I made someone else's day that much better. I love to laugh & be goofy, but know when I need to be serious & get the job done as well. I hope I would be a great fit for you or your family member.
