I Have 5 children 37-20 and 6 grands- I have 3 children and 2 grands with severe anxiety, Asperger's, ADHD, Bipolar, BPD, perceptual impairment and CBD. I care for 2 other children who are severely Autistic and I love working with these special angels. I direct, guide and show positive reinforcement and also have immense compassion and patience. I have been able to help these children do simple tasks as best as they can and follow instructions to their capabilities. Repetition of positive reinforcement is key. These special angels pick us! They must be comfortable with whom they are with first and foremost. I've been dealing with mental illness and it's challenges for 34 years and I love it! I've literally dealt with it all and nothing that any school can teach real life to experience! This is my calling. Please read my reviews. Thank you for stopping by my page. I have a full background check also.

    Shawn went above and beyond with caring for our loved one. She worked beautifully beside our loved one who suffers from dementia. Our loved one trusted her and looked forward to her being back every day.
