Hello my name is Jaida! I graduated college with a major in criminology and a minor in psychology. Provided compassionate, individualized care and support to individuals with special needs in a safe, nurturing, and inclusive environment. Assisted with daily routines, meal preparation, feeding, personal care needs, and maintaining a structured schedule. Engaged individuals in meaningful activities including reading, arts and crafts, educational games, singing, dancing, sensory activities, and outdoor walks to parks and libraries. Encouraged social interaction, independence, and confidence while adapting activities to meet each person's unique abilities and needs. Demonstrated patience, empathy, strong communication skills, and a commitment to promoting the physical, emotional, and developmental well-being of those in my care.
