I have been in the caring profession for over 35 years. I am a mother of 5 grown children and 2 of them with special needs. I have always been their full time caregiver. Highly Experienced as a nanny & special needs my whole life from the age of 13. Now my children are grown and my life time of experience would benefit others. I am looking to obtain a long term caregiver position where I can be of help. I am reliable, truly care and can be trusted. I am a people person, funny, friendly and open minded. I have been caring for a young adult girl who has autism, hearing impaired, blind & none verbal for the past 5 years. I also care for a 20-year-old boy with Autism and non verbal for the past 7 years. I felt my experience could benefit families. I look forward to hearing from you. Donna

    Donna is a caring and compassionate woman I hired to care for my special needs nonverbal teenager. I could not have wished for anyone better! She is very kind and loving, and very professional---always wanting information on how to best care for my son and documenting his needs and schedule. When she is with him, I know he is in responsible hands, and I can continue my job successfully. She has lots of experience in the care field, and is a mom herself. Highly recommend!
