I'm Maya! I've worked with people with special needs for the past 3 years. I am Adult, Child and Baby First Aid/CPR/AED certified! I have my own transportation.
I have cared for my elderly aunt for the last 2 years, grocery shopping , doing laundry meal prepping and changing. I helped with my grandmother before she passed away getting her into bed and helping feed her. I think I have a well rounded personality and love listening to stories and helping people in need.
