Hello! Thank you for considering me to care for your loved one. I'm very passionate about connecting with people, and my experiences include working at a camp for children and co-workers who were either deaf and/or blind, and/or orthopedically impaired, a Special Olympics softball coach for adults, teaching adult daily living skills to clients with depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and/or addictions (I was also a case manager many years). Through a joint community venture, I created a program that serves clients who have both a developmental disability and a mental illness diagnosis. Completed a very educational internship at the National Technical Institute for the Deaf. Served as a counselor at a camp for kids and teens who had diabetes. I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology, a Master's Degree in Therapeutic Recreation, and a Master's Degree in Social Work from Indiana University.

    Susie has provided excellent care for our three sons. She is prompt and responsible, and readily communicates with any updates or questions. We especially value her expertise with children with special needs and familiarity with American Sign Language. Susie is an outstanding and reliable care provider, and we enthusiastically recommend her services.
