I am a very caring and passionate caregiver who has experience working with varying types of special needs. I've recently moved to GA from CT where I worked as a foster care case manager for child with medically-complex diagnoses. These including disorders such as: Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Chromosome Disorders, Seizure Disorders, etc. In my spare time and before my career in foster care, I was a nanny for a young boy with autism on and off for five years. I also have a bachelor's degree in psychology with a concentration in human services, which I believe helped me learn a lot about working with adults and children with special needs. I'm very open and excited for an opportunity to work with an extraordinary child.
