My name is Tamika. I have worked with individuals with special needs for 5 years in a group home that housed 8 individuals, both regular staff and management. I also helped in the day program where they went 5 days a week. I have worked hands on with Severe MR, Autistic and Down syndrome people. I truly believe that this is my calling. I love working with special needs people. I am CPR certified. I also have knowledge of medication and topical treatment. I love participating in arts in crafts, outings, anything educational.
