I've working with children who are along the spectrum for about five years. I started in a group home working as a direct care counselor for 2. 5 years. Then I worked as a home health aid for a young girl who had NF1 and was blind. After her I then worked for a family who had two young boys and were along the spectrum. I was able to work alongside with their therapist to help implement the best structure for the kids. I truly enjoy what I do and love helping others in which ever way that I can. This is the most rewarding job I've done and it leaves you with a great feeling.

    Brittany worked for us a little less than two years, than we moved back to Italy. That is the only reason why she is not with us anymore. Brittany became quickly part of our family. She traveled with us in America and in Italy. She is smart, witty, well educated, honest, sweet, mature and responsible. My kids constantly ask me about her as they miss her deeply. It's a pleasure to have her around and a big big help for any mother! She will always have a family here in Italy! I really hope she will find a new family that deserve her! L.
