I've worked with Special Needs children through my church who has a group for Special Needs children; and I've also worked with them as a best friend of mine is a caretaker of a fellow with down syndrome and some mental retardation. Through the plethora of memories built with children in these two settings I have come to love as well as cherish spending time with special needs children. I've also worked with people of special needs when I have worked many years as a pharmacy technician, where I learned much about them and medical precautions as well. I've volunteered for the Special Olympics for two years and am very excited to work with someone who is special in your life! I love to teach and I'm very gracious, caring and patient.

My son had a sudden stroke that left him with many difficulties. We hired Ariel as a live-in caregiver and acted as his voice in the world. She helped him set up appointments, went with him to all doctor's appointments, relaying pertinent info to the family, advocated for him to get the maximum amount of therapy his insurance would pay, relayed changing care plans with my family, and assisted in my filing and getting disability services. She also cooked, cleaned and drove when needed, helped him start back in the gym, led him thru strength-building physical therapy exercises and helped with home speech therapy homework. Even more appreciated than Ariel's helpfulness has been her genuine friendship for him. He feels she honestly cares about him and is a real friend in his loneliness. That has made all of the difference. I too appreciated greatly her clear reports on progress. We both give our highest recommendation to her services.
