I have meaningful experience supporting individuals with special needs, including Down syndrome, and I've been surrounded by people on the autism spectrum for much of my life. Because of this, I have a clear and compassionate understanding of the emotional challenges they may face and the importance of patience, consistency, and empathy. I'm very attentive to emotional cues and always aim to create a calm, supportive, and respectful environment where each person feels safe and understood. I truly love being a helping hand to families and supporting them in ways that make daily life a little easier and more positive.
