Compassionate, dependable, and experienced caregiver with 5+ years of experience supporting individuals with a wide range of abilities and care needs. My background includes working as a Personal Care Assistant (PCA) for multiple families as well as serving as a Paraprofessional within school systems, providing both academic and personal support in structured and home environments. I have experience working with clients of many ages, personalities, and abilities, and I strive to provide care that is patient, respectful, individualized, and empowering. My goal is to help individuals feel safe, supported, encouraged, and valued while promoting independence whenever possible. I understand the importance of consistency, trust, and strong communication with families. I take pride in building meaningful connections while creating a positive, supportive environment tailored to each individual's unique needs.
