| I have been working in mental health care for 10 years as a health care assistant and will be immunized with phizer by Feb 21, 2021 and now hope to work from home. I would be happy to have my kids get to know a new friend. I trained in Ayruvedic medicine for 4 years and I am an Ayurvedic practitioner which means I love yoga and natural ways for mind body health. I also have a degree in applied chemistry and biotechnology so I do understand and enforce all precautions for COVID. I hope to be supportive to your child in the best way possible. Whether it is best I sing or play music with a kid, play on a beach and let them have fun with my kids, or help with structured behavior modification which can be planned on an individual basis. I have re-certified in first aid every year or two for the past 10 years. I am comfortable with medically related issues as most on the list I have helped to support in the past during emergency or routine therapy. ( My son knows a bit of sign language, I currently know very little, but I have listed this as it is my sons passion, and I would be willing to learn. )
