Hello! I have experience working with individuals with a variety of disabilities and have had the privilege of supporting children, teens, and adults with different needs. I previously coached a special needs cheerleading team, where I worked with athletes of all ages and abilities, helping create a positive, encouraging, and inclusive environment. I have also supported students with learning disabilities through tutoring, helping them build confidence and find learning strategies that work best for them. These experiences have taught me the importance of patience, understanding, flexibility, and meeting each person where they are. I am a caring, dependable, and compassionate caregiver who loves providing support, companionship, and encouragement. I would be honored to help create a safe, positive, and empowering environment for whoever I have the opportunity to work with.
