One summer, I lived with my 97-year-old grandmother and helped her while she was going through chemo. I bathed her, made her breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and did all the grocery shopping and more for her. I would read to her, and just sit with her and keep her company. It was a great experience that I will never forget.
I have 6 years of volunteer/babysitting experience with special needs children and 2 years professionally. I am currently in school pursuing my degree in special education and I am extremely passionate about what I do. I have also worked in an elementary school as a paraprofessional for 2 years and LOVED what I did.
I have lot of experience with kids from 11 months up to special needs 18 years olds. I am in school to become a teacher so I am super passionate about helping the young. I can do whatever is required (unless it requires a car), I am hard working and would love to help your families out!
