Very adaptable and willing to learn how to care for clients special needs. Taken care of infants with support needs.
I try my best to understand each individual's needs. I have no problem helping out in unconventional ways. My youngest brother is a 6-year-old on the autism spectrum so I'm very familiar with caring for a child with similar needs. I' always open to learning more and educating myself further through experience.
