I have 8 years of experience caring for babies and young kids with special needs, helping with all daily needs such as, but not limited to feedings, activities, therapy, taking them to and from appointments and school. I am very passionate about caring for kids with special needs and realize the mass amount of help a family needs during their daily routine. The reassurance that their child who might not be able to communicate is getting the best care day in and day out. Having a close family member who has special needs makes me that much more aware of the needs and support a child and family need. I am also approved by Medicaid for respite/attendee care.

    Kourtney is fantastic with my children! They are excited to see her every time she has come. She is always on time or early, she is reliable and professional and she makes the time with my boys fun. I like the fact that she does activities with my children and doesn't sit them in front of the TV. She even taught my six year old son how to tie his shoes and he is learning how to add double digit numbers. We are going to miss her when she moves to Missouri. I highly recommend her.
