About Iris
Experience: 6 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have worked as a respite caregiver for children and adults with disabilities for six years and am waiting to take my state CNA exam. I have worked as an at-home caregiver, a camp counselor, and a caregiver for extended overnight periods. I love spending quality time with my clients, playing, stimming, and making art. I am comfortable with a wide range of personal care tasks such as toileting, showering, dental hygiene, and dressing. I am very pro-stimming and work to adapt to my client's strengths and needs. I'm very experienced with sensory processing and behavioral challenges. I love creating a safe and fun environment for my clients and encourage them to be themselves. I proudly support all neurodiversity and work to support my clients as best I can. I am nonbinary and use they/them pronouns.
