Hello! My name is Destinée, and I am passionate about supporting individuals with special needs. My journey in this field began as a special needs swim instructor, where I spent three fulfilling years helping children build confidence and skills in the water. I am currently a special education teacher and have dedicated four years to teaching and advocating for students with diverse learning needs. For the past two years, I have been a personal service worker for a young boy with autism. During this time, I've provided assistance with daily activities, such as feeding, bathing, and accompanying him to restaurants, parties, camp, and the gym. I believe that every individual deserves care, compassion, and understanding, especially those with special needs. I am excited to continue making a positive impact in the lives of others and look forward to the opportunity to work with you and your family!
