I have a very low functioning disabled Downs Syndrome brother who've I've helped take care of my whole life as well as grew up with multiple forms of disabled people around me. I am in dental hygiene school and because of that I've had medical Emergencies classes, and am CPR certified. I have a degree in Art as well so I am very creative, as well as very athletic. As of right now I'm in summer clinic Monday Wednesday and Fridays but I am not scheduled every single time. So have some free here and there. I have lots of memory games, puzzles, bubbles etc. from my brother growing up. I currently work at Home Depot for 4 years but it's a bit much for me with school right now. I am COVID vaccinated. Also because of my strict program I am drug tested every few months along with criminal background checked and child abuse checked every year of school. So just as an extra comfort. I've watched my parents cry and struggle for help with my brother for years and understand wanting your child safe
