I have daily experience with my own child with special needs.. He is on the autism spectrum has ADHD and ODD. His emotional needs varies depending upon the day as well as his behavioural issues. I have had experience with a multitude of different physical Limitations. Have the ability to do as needed as not every day is the same. I am confident in handling everything from feeding to bathing to transportation. To be given the opportunity to care for someone is a gift. To me it's extremely important to treat every person that I come in contact with as an individual, and as a family member or friend would be treated. I believe there is no difference in someone's personality oe dignity just because they have a certain need that they need fulfilled. I hope I can be that person to be able to assist you.
