As a teacher's assistant, I enjoy working with people with special needs and different ages. I work patiently and diligently in providing relevant activities, organization, and personal care to each individual in a fun filled but safe environment. I always find the experience interesting and enriching. I have hands-on experience. I am energetic, patient and very cognizant of the need for reliability, compassion and trustworthiness at all times. Given the opportunity, I am always prepared to learn new things and meet new people. Besides working with students with autism and CP recently, I also tutor and prepare the students.

    Patrica is a joy to be around, and cares a lot about the people she looks after. Everyone in the house begins smiling when she shows up, and still smiling when leaves (if a bit sad to see her go). I couldn't recommend her highly enough to have her care for your loved ones.
