I am very passionate about helping people with special needs. I have a brother with autism and cognitive disabilities. I am very responsible, patient, gentle and kind. I learned at a very young age the importance of having extra patience when caring for people with special needs. I'm positive, fun, and very easygoing.

    Heather is a very nice, responsible young woman. She has worked with my son who is an adult with special needs. I found her to be kind, caring and very patient with him. My son seems to like her very much. She continues to work with my son with great results.
