I am currently working as a social worker for children who are developmentally disabled or have chronic mental health diagnoses. I have worked in the past as an in-home caregiver for seniors & individuals with Cerebral Palsy. I have also worked in group homes for adults with developmental disabilities as a direct care worker. I have experience pet sitting for lovebirds, budgies, double yellow headed amazons, cats and dogs.
