I have worked with special needs for over 4 years and enjoy working with these individuals. I have current CPR/First Aid certification. I will also provide outings to those that want to go out in the community. My previous experience included taking care of a young gentleman that did not "speak" but communicated with signs and noises. I strive to help these individuals feel more independent with themselves. I provide meals according to the family's wishes, and can assist in bathing or grooming if needed. I will also provide bathroom assistance when needed or will work with those that maybe incontinent. I will do light housekeeping and will strive to make you happy. Happiness with special needs is something I believe that all individuals have the right to. If the person has a service plan, I will follow it and provide goal oriented activities to help achieve the goals in their service plan. I am currently attending online school for Applied Behavior Science so that I can further my skills in this field. I will have a bachelors degree in 2017 when I am finished. I look forward to hearing from you and appreciate your time to look at my profile. Thank you.

    I have known Amanda for 12+ years. I have been a co-worker of Amandas more then once. Amanda is a very hard-working, trustworthy and reliable person. Amanda has the ability to learn very quickly and adapts her skills well. Amanda has shown that she works well without direct supervision and always takes the initiatives to get the job done. I have personally enjoyed working with her and getting to know her all these years.
