As the older sibling of a child with special needs, I have gained several years of exposure and experience with various needs and supports. Additionally, I have spent the past year working for a respite care program for children of ages 6-18. This experience has provided exposure to a wide range of disabilities and special needs, and has educated me on providing the best assistance possible to those who need it! Providing care to families and children with special needs is a personal passion that I hope to pursue for a long time to come! Nothing brings me more joy than providing the most excellent care in my power to each child I come into contact with.
