Working with special needs individuals is my passion. In 2009 I decided that I wanted to work with the developmentally disabled full time. I worked at an adult day center from 2009-2010; it was my favorite job, although I had very long and tiring days there. In 2010. I moved to Louisville. I really missed working with people with special needs and got a side job helping out a young boy after school. I have also been working with special needs children at my church for the last year. It is truly what I love doing. I am currently working part time as a CNA and I would also love to spend time with someone who is needing some extra attention a few nights a week.
