Hello! I'm Jaona, an Occupational Therapy Assistant (OTA) student with hands-on experience supporting individuals with diverse special needs. My training in occupational therapy gives me unique insights into fostering independence, building trust, and helping each individual reach personal goals in their daily routines. I'm passionate about creating a supportive environment tailored to each person's unique needs. I've worked with individuals with autism, cerebral palsy, and ADHD. My approach centers on patience, empathy, and creativity, adapting activities to meet sensory, cognitive, and physical needs. I'm familiar with therapy-based techniques and understand the importance of routines and individualized care. My goal is to provide more than just support, I strive to empower each person to build skills, confidence, and independence. If you're looking for a dedicated caregiver with therapeutic insight, I'd love to discuss how I can support your family's needs!
