Respite Care in Denver 

I started my professional experience with Aurora Public Schools as a Para Educator. A student in my class asked if I would provide respite services and I have cared for her since. I also worked for an adult day program as a Direct Support Professional. While working for this agency, I was promoted to a Case Manager where I oversaw a lot of medical documentation and created medical protocols. Outside of my professional experience, my grandmother was a host home provider and I helped her a lot with her individuals. Because I lived with her, I received a lot of hands on experience

I am passionate about working with kids with disabilities. I love to see the joy they have and to watch them grow. I have experience with a variety of ages and a variety of special needs. I have done respite day programs as well as in-home care. I am eager to help them work on goals and foster independence.

Hi! I am a passionate and excited college student at Seattle Pacific University! I am currently studying Special Education and am looking to make a little extra money while doing what I love. I am reliable, hard working, and passionate about caring for individuals with special needs. I have much experience working with individuals with special needs including working at a Respite Care Center, as a Job Coach, and working at a camp for children with disabilities.

Experience providing care from infancy up to respite care for seniors. I personally believe that developing a relationship with clients is the most important first step to providing the quality of care I strive for and they deserve. This has been extremely effective over my years for being able to work with challenging behaviors ( I am CPI certified and have experience with ABA Therapy). When engaging with clients I focus on fun engaging activities that can stimulate all parts of the brain. Interest based instruction and planning is key so that clients have a voice. For the past 5 years I ran a Significant Support Needs program with a variety of ability levels. I have experience implementing behavior plans, seizure plans, hygiene needs, feeding plans. Eager to learn new strategies, very open-minded and eager to communicate openly. Some of the things I love are music, art, movement, and the outdoors. I am a very kind, quirky, and compassionate person.

I am passionate about working with children. I have experience long term and over night care giving for children. As a new graduate nurse am I CPR and first aid certified. This summer I had the pleasure of working at an overnight respite camp for children and adults with disabilities. I also love to ski!

Hello, I know that this part is scary. Trying to find a safe person to place your loved ones care in is always a hard decision. Let me tell you a little about me. I love my family with all my heart and this is why I'm in home health. My mother was diagnosed 13 years ago with lung cancer. I moved back home to take care of her. It was so hard seeing my vibrant mother wither away to this tiny fragile person before me. I was so thankful for the respite I received from her hospice nurses. When my mother passed I decided right then and there that I wanted to be in home health. I truly love taking care of all the people I've met. I treat each one as if they're part of my family. Wanting to provide better care I also took extra schooling to specialize in dementia care as well. Live in care is also something I truly enjoy. I know this is my calling in life. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions you may have. I look forward to speaking with you. God Bless, Christy
