Palm Harbor Special Needs Care

I have several years experience working with children and adults in a variety settings in the health care field and private home care. In the last eight years I have worked with several families through Care. com, assisting with companion care, homecare tasks, transportation, community outings, medication assistance, bathing, food preparation, shopping and more. At this point in time I am looking for part time hours, close to home. If I could be of service to you and your family by caring for someone in your home, I would be happy to help.

Hello! My name is Jackie. I am a graduate of USF College of Education and just completed my first year teaching as a Pre-K ASD teacher. I have been working with kids for 10 years now and have experience with special needs children. I am also available for tutoring or pet care.

In the past, I worked as an Occupational Therapist, in hospitals, rehab centers, home health, nursing homes and also with children in schools and hospitals. I am available to do a variety of tasks including companionship care, meal preparation, transportation, assistance with self care, mobility, home care tasks, and have worked with people who have all kinds of disabilities. I have a background in art and framing as well. I love nature and enjoy the outdoors. I recently ended a year and a half of volunteer work providing weekly art classes to residents living in a special dementia wing of a long term care facility. I take pride in getting to know the families I work for and can be very supportive in stressful situations, but like to be upbeat and have a sense of humor as often as possible. Please see my other reviews under the special needs section of my profile.

I also have experience with special-needs children and teens, so I am able to be patient and understanding.
