Hi I'm Sara. I have a passion for working with special needs/autistic children. I have a master degree in behavioral therapy. I have 13 years of expierence working with special needs children, adults and the elderely. Im comfortable working/sitting for any age range. I wanted to do enjoyable for my free time and thought this would be a good fit. I work full-time and have 2 children of my own. So, I understand a night off for a parent isn't only needed, its healthy for you to take that time for yourself. Date Night, Girls Night, Me Night are all great reasona to need a sitter. Many care givers for the elderly suffer from burnout. I enjoy spending time with the elderly. I believe it is important to meet people, especially alzheimer's and dementia, at their mind set and to always leave things on a positive note to promote a better mood.
