I have had over 8 years experience with a young man who has Lennox Gustaut Syndrome which is a severe form of Epilepsy and he also has Autism. I was his companion and caregiver on a daily basis for 2 years. This gave me a wide range of experience with special needs. I also have experience babysitting on a regular basis a few young girls that have down syndrome. I had at one time had CNA License and BLS license! l and working in a nursing home for many years. I have a strong passion in working with special needs and would love to continue my passion by taking care of your loved one!

    Elayna was always dependable and punctual. She was flexible when our schedule changed. She was patient and kind, active and fun with my kids. She communicated well with me without becoming bothersome while I was at work. Elayna has a good heart and an awesome attitude and I would hire her again in an instant!
