Hi, I'm Destiny, but everyone calls me Dessy. I'm a born and raised New Yorker with over seven years of professional caregiving experience, specializing in supporting individuals with special needs from early childhood through adulthood. I have extensive experience working with individuals on the autism spectrum as well as hands on experience supporting individuals with cerebral palsy, including assistance with mobility, personal care, feeding support, daily routines, and promoting independence with patience and dignity. My caregiving style blends structure, compassion, and creativity to meet each individual where they are while encouraging growth and confidence. In addition to direct care, I help families by managing schedules, coordinating appointments, maintaining organized environments, and supporting daily routines. Families describe me as dependable, warm, and intuitive, someone who brings calm, consistency, and genuine care into their home.
