As a child, my best friend had Down Syndrome. To the day, I consider him as the most amazing person I have ever met. He strongly influenced many of my childcare philosophies and ideas about how people should treat each other. Since then I have worked with severely physically impaired youth, as well as children with autism, ADHD, ODD and other difficulties.

    I hired her for personal errands, putting gift bags together and making care packages. She shopped online, stayed within budget, and added some creativity to capture the spirit of each child in the gifts. She is also a great pet care taker, she would be great at walking dogs, pet sitting cats, and birds and dogs, she is also a great diverse cook, able to prepare meals with any special diet and can make healthy and artificial snacks as well. She knows a lot about nutrition and ingredients. She even makes her own spices. She is also very gifted tutoring children with learning difficulties or special needs. She has lived and worked in China for many years and has taught elementary school aged kids art and English. She would be great at teaching little ones about art appreciation, how to sketch, or draw anime. She is very sensitive, empathetic, possesses high IQ, and is very caring towards families and children. She comes from a big family, her dad was in the military, they traveled a lot.
