Hi! I have been told that I have a talent for communicating with and calming special needs persons; I believe that is due to experience and intuition, plus deeply wanting to help those that need it. I have more than 10 years experience working with young people or adults with special needs. I was a PCA in a group home and private homes, and more recently I worked with young people in Special Education Transition Program for young adults. I am also a musician and nature lover who loves being outside. Right now I'm looking for part-time work because of family responsibilities (my mother is in the later stages of Parkinson's).

    Rebecca helped me when I stayed with my son in Minneapolis. She is dependable, trustworthy, great at communicating and coordinating schedules, and a pleasure to be around. I highly recommend her!
