I have a disabled brother who has CP and I am his PCA so I have experience in both. I have also worked with several other people with various disabilities through project power and events my brother has gone, too. We also have therapy dogs we bring to visit people with special needs from time to time.
I have worked as a child care provider for over 10 years but would be happy to branch out to special needs! I am very patient and treat others with kindness and respect. I am a good communicator and very willing to learn. I am very moldable and open to instruction and constructive criticism.
