During my most recent caregiving experience, I had the opportunity to work closely with children on the autism spectrum, and it was both rewarding and deeply educational. I supported them in their daily routines, helping with personal care, communication, and behavioral development in a structured, patient, and compassionate environment. Each child had unique needs and strengths, so I adapted my approach to suit their individual personalities and learning styles. I used visual schedules, sensory-friendly activities, and consistent positive reinforcement to create a calm and supportive atmosphere. This experience strengthened my understanding of autism and taught me the importance of empathy, flexibility, and clear communication. It was truly fulfilling to witness progress whether it was a new word, a moment of connection, or simply a smile and to be a steady presence in each child's life.
