I worked for Children's Service Society of Wisconsin as a Behavioral Specialist for their Volunteer Respite Care Events, where I gained experience with working with kids with a wide range of disorders. I have a Personal Care Worker Certificate from 40 hours of training. I have been an in-home respite caregiver for 3 different families. I have worked with a 6-year-old girl with Angelman syndrome, an 18 to 20-year-old man with Q11-12 (which has parallel symptoms to one with Down syndrome), and I have worked with a 14 to 15 with Asperger's. I have also babysat for multiple families with kids with ADHD.
