Hello! I'm extremely passionate about special needs, my 4 year daughter was diagnosed with Autism in 2015, so I have a little knowledge of speech therapy, occupational therapy, and learning to deal with sensory issues. I used to work for a company as an independent contractor. I went to homes and served as a companion for young adults and adults with disabilities. I'm currently in college for social work.

    I myself and my family have hired Amanda for many things. She has always been on time and stayed longer if needed. She always does an amazing job. No matter if it was for housekeeping or watching my son or my pets and she has also helped care for my grandmother. We all love her and haven't found anyone as good as her to help and we always call on her when needed ! She truly is a saint ! I would rate more then 5 stars if I could !
