I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Amy . Amy has watched my dog on several separate occasions- I have a French bulldog. I work 12 hour shifts so Amy takes him for a walk around lunchtime and stays with him for 2 hours. Amy keeps me updated, texting me when she arrives and when she leaves the house and sends pictures to let me know he's OK. Amy tires him out, taking him for long walks and playing games, whenever she leaves I check the camera and he settles straight to sleep. Amy leaves boredom breakers out for him in case he wakes up but he usually sleeps through! Highly recommend Amy as my dog can be quite timid but he has happily welcomed her into his life! I was initially nervous leaving my dog with a stranger but now I don't think I could trust anyone else"

22-year-old Special Ed student living in West end (3 years of experience)
| I am a flexible, confident and patient individual with over three years of experience working in a special education setting as a Teaching assistant and/or a Learning disability support worker, promoting independence amongst service users. Further to this, I have in-depth knowledge of safeguarding all individuals, de-escalation techniques and ‘covering’ lessons for teachers at a moment notice. More than anything else, I am most experienced as a carer for my younger sister with Autism, I believe this has meant I have a natural understanding for other families/students in a similar situation to mine. I am a 2nd year BA Education student training to become a SEN Teacher.

Special needs carer
| I’m currently trying to get into university to study paediatric nursing and I am hoping to get an opportunity to gain some more experience in caring for people . I am particularly interested in caring with people with disabilities such as autism as i myself have aspergers so i know a great deal about how to give care to someone who has similar/ more severe disabilities . Although i am autistic I don’t let that hold me back and i use it as a “superpower” as it gives me an incredible memory and i am more aware than most about sensory issues . I have undergone a first aid course and i have skills in DBT and CBT (mental health therapy courses) . I have no other responsibilities so i will be able to help how little or as much as you may desire . Although i will be getting paid that is not my motivation, my motivation is to gain experience and help people who can’t always help themselves
