Special needs adult care in Bedford, MA

I love working with kids with special needs. I worked with kids with a variety of disabilities in high school as an intern for 3 years in high school and absolutely fell in love with it. I also have experience with caregiving as I have taken care of an 18-year-old girl with Cerebral Palsy.
I'm currently a care manager for a non profit that helps older and disabled adults. I am passionate about providing quality care and ensuring my clients safety and comfort. I enjoy listening to older people and am very patient.
