My care-giving experience is extensive, which has exposed me to a wide range of cultures and backgrounds. I have worked with families who had children with ASD, CP, ADHD, etc. so I understand the responsibilities that are expected of me as a special needs caregiver. One thing that I have learned from care-giving is that each child has their individual needs. This realization has made me very skilled at addressing behavior issues. My most recent care-giving experiences have been for children ranging from 5-13 years old. I am actively engaged in volunteer activities usually involving homelessness or special needs, and because my vocational interest is to help others, I am transitioning into the public health sector. I am CPR/AED certified and a black belt. I do not drink, smoke, or do drugs. I have no criminal background and a clean driving record. But what makes me most qualified for care-giving is my friendliness, care for child development, and great work ethics.
