Experiences Caretaker For Autistic Children

I worked as a one on one for autistic children in school settings. I still work After School Program being a one on one with an autsitic child in Bayside. I believe being good at this position all comes down to being a great listener to their concerns and/ or needs. Knowing what they are into, what makes them laugh, having fun.
Hi there! I'm a very outgoing, responsible and reliable person. I have worked with differently abled people in the past and find it very rewarding. Caring for others is such a joy and I hope you'll consider me. :)
