My name is Amy, I worked as a Personal Care Giver for the state of Washington DSHS. I worked with two special needs children . I am trained on GJ tubes , G tubes , I know basic to intermediate SEE sign language. I have experience with seeing and hearing impaired and nonverbal individuals. Both my clients have epilepsy, and were on the spectrum. I love people and believe everyone is capable of learning no matter the ability. My greatest joy was seeing this first hand no matter if it was while I was assisting feeding or in any small task . I recently relocated to Memphis and am looking forward to working part-time again.

    Amy was my daughters HCA for 3 years until we moved. My daughter is nonverbal, feeding tube and wheelchair dependent. I don't trust others easily with my daughter. Amy was the only one outside of family members trusted to help with my daughter. I would definitely recommend her services.
