Dedicated caregiver embracing neurodivergence Experienced in Bathing/Grooming/Hygiene & Positive Behavioral Support Passionate about empowering neurodivergent & disabled individuals Hello! I'm Gaines, a compassionate caregiver with experience in Bathing/Grooming/Hygiene and Positive Behavioral Support. As a neurodivergent individual myself, I bring a unique understanding and empathy to my work. My approach is rooted in empathy, respect, and building genuine connections. I celebrate neurodivergence as a beautiful aspect of human diversity, promoting independence and self-advocacy. Let's create a nurturing space where everyone can thrive. Seeking a caregiver who understands the unique challenges and strengths of neurodivergent individuals? Contact me to discuss how I can provide exceptional care, fostering well-being, dignity, and empowerment.
