Christina L.
Everyday life gets the best of us, having a bit of extra help on the side can relieve some stress. I have been a personal assistant on and off for the past 3 years, total experience adds up to a year. I would love to get to work. Communication leads to the best outcome!
In the past, I have worked as an ABA Therapist/ Personal Assistant to a young non-verbal boy with Autism, as well as to a 22-year-old adult male on the spectrum. I have developed a heart and passion for developing relationships with people with special needs, and have learned a great deal through these experiences.
I have trained in professional, skilled nursing environments, but I prefer the home health aid caregiving of healthcare. One on one support is crucial to those in need.
