I'm a patient, dependable, and compassionate caregiver with hands-on experience supporting individuals with special needs. I previously cared for a young man with muscular dystrophy, assisting with his daily needs and providing companionship. I also taught art to students with a wide range of special needs throughout high school. These experiences taught me the importance of patience, adaptability, and understanding each person as an individual. I'm comfortable helping with daily routines, meals, transportation, activities, and companionship while creating a safe, positive, and supportive environment.
