I am a compassionate caregiver with several years of experience as a school paraprofessional and caregiver, supporting individuals with special needs such as autism, ADHD, G-tube feeding, and more. I am patient, dependable, and passionate about creating a safe, supportive, and encouraging in-home environment. I enjoy building trust, encouraging independence, and providing consistent emotional and daily living support tailored to each individual's needs. For safety and comfort on both sides, I do require an in-person interview or meet and greet before accepting any position. I would love the opportunity to return to this work and make a positive difference in someone's daily life.
