My name is Cathy. I have ample experience working with special needs kids in a personal and professional setting. I am extremely patient and never give up on a child. I am comfortable with all ages. I am able to change diapers, assist with potty training if needed, clean, and cook. I have experience with food allergies, epilepsy, ADHD, and Autism. I am comfortable with verbal and non verbal communication. I am able to use all means of communication, including sign language. I will help with homework and am able to help track goals if needed. I can provide behavior and emotional support. I am always willing to take kids on outings whether that is the store, the park, or a museum. I think it is very important for everyone to have the opportunity to socialise and explore when/if appropriate. I am Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified. I have a level 1 fingerprint clearance card. I can provide documentation if requested.
