Hello, my name is Anita I'm currently pursuing a degree in psychology and social sciences. I'm a Behavioral specialist who works with special needs kids from ages 2 to 18 but I also have experience working with adults ages 18 to 95. My experience as far as adults is I've worked at senior living communities and I also worked for a family as a private caregiver for a year. About me - I have a plethora of hobbies which range from painting and sketching to sewing and making clothes. I consider myself very active, I love going on runs, going to the gym and going out into nature as much as I can. Hope we can talk about a potential opportunity!

    I needed a caretaker for my autistic son last minute. She was ready and available to help. She looked after him and made sure his meals were according to his dietary restrictions. It looks like they had a good time at the mall and the movies.
