I have worked with developmentally disabled individuals for the past 15 years in numerous capacities (social service agency, special education co-op, developmental center and as an in home life skills trainer). I have undergone extensive training and development in meeting the various needs of the people I serve and continue to train to keep up with providing the most up to date services available. I am also the mother of a son who has autism so I have full understanding & life experiences of the complex needs they have daily. I love my work like no other job I have ever had and bring a true commitment to the services I deliver to the families I work with. I am trustworthy, punctual and extremely dependable.

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Linda. She's a treasure and my son (who has high functioning autism) loves her. Not only was she our son's caregiver, she will always be part of our family. Linda is truly one of the best people I have ever known.
