I recently graduated with my degree, Doctor of Physical Therapy and am a licensed physical therapist. I have a passion to care for those in need, especially those who are most vulnerable. This has made me, comfortable, competent and confident with providing care for people with special needs. I have over 9 years of care giving experience. I have watched over 10+ families. I have cared for 1-6 children at a time in a home setting and enjoyed every part of it! I have a variety of experience working with people with various conditions, including but not limited to: PD, CP, TBI, cancer, myasthenia graves, and MS. I make it a point to myself to always be ahead of time, ensure safety, be a good role model, not be distracted with electronics, and make a fun/loving atmosphere. I am CPR and First Aide certified. Fluent in Polish.

    We can't say enough good things about Veronica....she's caring, responsible, hard working and very flexible. She's been helping serve as personal assistant for our 20 yr old daughter who has some physical and intellectual special needs. Veronica quickly earned our trust and our daughter's trust and has been an amazing coach, help, friend, guide all at the same time - not easy to do. We would recommend Veronica to anyone looking for someone who's dependable, kind and hard working.
