I have worked in an adult foster care home for over a year and a half; I have worked with elderly residents with a variety of disorders and mental health issues. I have also cared for younger adults with developmental difficulties and adults with mental difficulties. In addition, I have raised three children of my own and am quite familiar with the responsibilities included in child care; my eldest child suffered a massive stroke at birth and required round the clock special needs care for her first year of life, including extensive physical therapy. I am intimately aware of the needs, pressures, and concerns of parents with a special needs child. My educational background affords me insight into various developmental and mental difficulties as well. I would welcome the opportunity to put my life and employment experiences and education to use taking care of children or adults with special needs.
