During the school year I work as an Educational Assistant. I chose this career at the prompting of a parent I babysat for through high school. I enjoy getting to know kids, beyond diagnoses. Usually, I provide respite from our home in the country, where I live with my 18 year old - she also has experience working for local community services such as Zachary's Camp and Teamwork's swim lessons. I have experience in private respite, homeschooling, group homes and therapeutic environments. I have worked full time in our school board for 10 years. I hope to encourage exploration as I provide care. We can explore nature, music, art, games, flavours, talents, independence, some new places, and new people. I will send a daily photo on respite days, and welcome siblings at no extra cost. Respite available: Mon-Sat, weekly. First come first serve basis.
