Committed compassionate professional offering hands on experience in health related care giving, behavior support, mentoring, and advocating. I possess exceptional listening skills, empathy and sensitivity towards each individual's specific needs. Currently working as an ABS therapist (Autistic Behavioral Specialist) where I provide in-home therapy, support, and teach specific skills catering to each individual's specific needs. Have worked with a few lovely families in providing occasional babysitting and have also been a long term nanny as well. In the past I worked for multiple group home companies supporting a vast group of individuals who had different disabilities, mental health related diagnoses, or substance abuse issues. I have a passion for helping people and I am very willing to work hard and learn new things. Good at working as part of a team as well as on my own. Always friendly and helpful, and care about client satisfaction.
