I have several years experience working with children and adults with special needs that has shaped my patience, empathy, and deep understanding of individualized care. I have supported children with autism, ODD, and developmental delays, and I am comfortable working with a wide range of behavioral, emotional, and cognitive needs. My background also includes hands-on experience caring for family members with conditions such as dementia, Alzheimer's, multiple sclerosis, and cerebral palsy. I am a compassionate, reliable, and attentive caregiver who truly values building trust and meaningful connections. I strive to create a safe, structured, and supportive environment while also bringing warmth, positivity, and encouragement into daily routines. My goal is to not only support daily functioning, but to enhance quality of life and provide families with peace of mind. :)
