About Mackenzie

34 years old Speaks English
It is my passion to work with people with special needs and I devote my life to it. Throughout my undergraduate degree, my masters in special education and my teacher education, I have worked with countless types of disabilities ranging from seizure disorders, individuals requiring toileting and hygiene assistance to autism and ADHD. In terms of 1:1 assistance, I have worked within social situations integrating children and teens into a camp setting, volunteer positions and within the community. However, I have also worked within special need schools and inclusive schools providing academic, behavioural and emotional assistance. I am dedicated, hardworking and is always willing to explore new experiences and research anything I need to know. It is unbelievably rewarding to watch their progress being made before my eyes and I love to be a part of the process. I have worked with a range of disabilities and have provided a variety of care including, feeding, toileting, communication devices and integration into the community.
