About Amanda

32 years old Speaks English
My younger brother is significantly disabled, providing me with lifelong experience and knowledge around disabilities. I have a bachelors degree in psychology and sociology. I have worked as a community support worker with disabled youth and adults for almost 4 years. I have been a private respite provider for disabled adults. I have also worked as a child and youth support worker in the school district. I have experience with trauma informed care, first aid, food safe, brain injuries, behavioural intervention, seizure intervention, medication administration, personal care, suicide prevention, and more. I learn quickly and pride myself in the quality of the care that I provide.
