For 11 years I worked for the New York State Office for People with Developmental Disabilities caring for children, young adults, adults and seniors with a wide range of physical, developmental and medical needs including individuals with Autism, Schizophrenia, Pica, Dementia and MS. Prior to that I worked off and on as a babysitter for children of varying ages for friends and family and volunteered as a counselor at the YMCA summer program for kids a few times. I'm comfortable passing meds, helping with personal hygiene and assisting with individual development goals. I like crafting and other indoor activities but also fun educational trips to the zoo, aquarium and museums.
