My experience includes 8 years teaching special needs & the primary caregiver for a quadriplegic this past year. My passion is providing the individual with the love & support needed to grow in a positive direction. I offer assistance with feeding, dressing, housekeeping, catheter changes, bowel program, medication, supervision, transportation and other duties, including those with special needs, which might require additional responsibilities and adapted approaches for supervision.
