About Michael
Experience: 10 yrs
I'm currently caring for a non-verbal autistic boy in the morning. My daily a. m. schedule (7:00-10:00 a.m. ) includes meal preparation, transportation, and life skills including physical and mental activities to enhance his daily life. My best attributes in this situation are my patience, persistence, and sense of caring for the situation for the young boy. My previous experience (15years) was assisting in the afternoon care of a family of seven children which involved transportation for after school activities, food preparation (snacks), and homework help.

Our small family is grateful and continues to benefit from the experiences Michael brings us from his large family and coaching background. He is calm, resourceful easy going and a great communicator. We also appreciate his wit and assurance that he can step up where and when we need his support.
