Hi my name is Shiryl! Are you still looking for special needs care? I have two children, 11 and 21. My 11-year-old was born with special needs. He has autism spectrum disorder. I have volunteer experience working with adult men and women teaching life skills. I worked as a social worker for the Department of Social Services, CPS, and as a Family Case Manager. I drove a school bus from 2002 until 2019 and worked with k-12 general Ed and special needs students. I have a BS in Behavioral Science and a Masters degree in Science Management. I attended Marian University's accelerated BSN nursing program. I am fully vaccinated and have been CPR and BLS / first aid certified.

    Shiryl is a great caregiver, very caring and professional, she cared for our son's special needs and she is very compassionate. She planned educational activities for the kids which really helps in school, took them to museums and the zoo. She goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy with the job she does and would still be our nanny if we hadn't moved. Can't recommend her enough.
