I have taken care of my lovely niece who has Down syndrome, intermittently over the past 24 years. I have also worked at a boarding school for mentally and physically challenged children and young adults. I mostly worked at their place of residence, helped them with their daily living activities, their individual assignments, their behavioral program and social activities. It really gives me great satisfaction to work with them.

    Emmeline L took care of my 24 year old daughter, who has Down Syndrome, for two years (from June 2009 thru December 201); and then intermittently for short periods of time. She proved to be a genuine warm and caring person. She was consistently kind, efficient and reliable. Emmeline did her best to help my daughter reach her full potential in various areas. My husband and I had peace of mind whenever she was under Emmeline's care.
