University Graduate, Educational Assistant With Ample Experience
| Hello! I have been immersed in the disability community nearly all my life as I have a younger sister with Down Syndrome. I began to babysit for other families and many who had children with disabilities. I was a nanny for 4 families in the first few years after High School graduation, one of which had a son on the Autism Spectrum. I then began to do community and family support work for individuals with disabilities. I worked for the Robin Hood Association in Sherwood Park and was privately hired by families. I still provide support work for individuals and kept up this work throughout my degree at the University of Alberta. Most recently I worked as an Educational Assistant in a Kindergarten class with children who have disabilities. I love what I do and who I support. I pride myself on tailoring my care to the individual and their family! I have provided a huge variation of care from personal care (hygiene, and toileting) to coordinating volunteer opportunities and employment.

I, myself, have ASD with little to no communication impairments (therefore, it will not interfere with interactions in work) and I believe that this aids me in understanding some of the individual needs of children/adults with autism.

Special Needs Care Aid
| Hello, my name is Avery and I am a fourth-year university student currently studying a combined degree of Special Needs Education and Performing Arts. I have 7 years of experience working with medically complex children. I love developing relationships and building connections with people who often are pushed to the sidelines. I'm fearlessly passionate about inclusion, detail-oriented, warm-hearted, playful and genuine. I'm most experienced in working with individuals with autism, epilepsy, pandas, ADHD, and diabetes, who are nonverbal or have other communication barriers. I'm incredibly patient and well-versed in nonviolent, de-escalating, reregulating techniques and I will do my best to genuinely connect with your child and develop a trusting fun and supportive relationship. I'm thrilled to assist or join your child through any activities like swimming, arts and crafts, outdoor play, educational tasks, basic day-to-day tasks, cooking, baking, fine motor skills, and language development work. I believe care workers have a big responsibility in the well-being of individuals, but should do their best to feel like a friend of family member, while ensuring all any support tasks are thoroughly addressed.
