Hi! My name is Nicholas, I'm 25 years old, and I've spent much of my life supporting people with special needs. I'm the older brother of an incredible girl named K, who was born with Down Syndrome and multiple medical, developmental, and mobility challenges, and later diagnosed with Autism, selective mutism, ODD, and ADHD. Growing up with K taught me patience, creativity, and compassion, including using basic sign language to communicate and helping with daily routines like hygiene, dressing, and mobility. Outside my family, I cared for a boy named A after school for two years, supporting his behavioral needs with consistency and empathy. I also assisted a blind student throughout high school. Helping others is something I genuinely love and value.
