Hi! I'm Kayla, a dedicated and compassionate caregiver with over four years of experience working with individuals with special needs. My journey began at Oakland Community Living Services (CLS), where I gained valuable experience as a Direct Support Professional (DSP). I have a deep understanding of how to provide tailored care and support, ensuring that each individual's unique needs are met with patience, respect, and empathy. In addition to my caregiving experience, I'm currently a psychology student at Wayne State University. My studies have deepened my understanding of mental health, communication strategies, and the diverse needs of individual so with special needs. Looking forward to connecting with you!
