Hello! My name is Amanda and I'm an occupational therapy assistant looking for part time work. I'm currently working full time in a school/clinic, but am looking for other possibilities for earning some money. My most recent experience has been working with students ages 5 to 25 with Autism. For over the past 7 years I have worked with individuals of all ages with special needs. I have experience in babysitting both typical children and those with special needs. I also love pets and would be more than happy to help out with your pets as well! I currently work Monday through Thursday,. I may also be available on the weekends, but there are some weekends I have to attend in-person classes out of state. I'm certainly willing to be flexible! Thank you for taking the time to check out my profile! I look forward to getting to know you and seeing how I can help! Have a great day!

I have had years of experience with children with special needs & believe I am the perfect girl for you! I will care for your children just like they are my own!

My name is Maggie, but most people call me Max, and I have several years of experience in childcare with children ranging from 2/3 years old to high school, as well as 2+ years of classroom experience. I currently work with autistic, physically disabled, and developmentally handicapped children, and I am looking to work for a loving family. I have coordinated children's activities for upwards of 80 kids (including special needs children) as a site manager for a children's summer camp program. As a ServSafe certified former professional cook I can also cook your family delicious meals within any necessary allergy parameters. Contact me if you need a care giver with experience and compassion.

I have experience working in an adult home, ages 22-75, with a variety of complex mental and physical needs. I have worked with both men and women and am comfortable with toileting and bathing as needed as well as medication administration as required. I have worked in a high school within the special education department as a transitional instructor. This means that the students and I completed lesson plans and built a pre-employment profile that they can use to get a job after graduation. I have also helped to teach classes within the school setting and am comfortable with helping your student complete school work as needed.

Hi! I have been working with people with special needs for the past 10 years. I started working in a day care. I met a wonderful family who had a child that was later diagnosed with autism and they captured my heart. As I was attending school I spent my summers working as a camp counselor for individuals with special needs. Several of the camps were for adults. Then for the past 2 almost 3 years I have been working at a residential facility for kids with special needs. I have worked with people with many different abilities and diagnosis. I am able to work with different behavior plans and be able to have fun. I believe the best way to provide care is by creating a positive safe environment so everyone is able to enjoy themselves and grow. Hope you have a wonderful day!
