Meet Brooke
- Comfortable with pets
I am a creative, compassionate, and reliable person who has over 10+ years of experience working with children with disabilities. I began as a babysitter for children with Autism and other disabilities when I was a teenager, and I truly care about each family I work with. My most recent experiences have involved working with adults with disabilities in after-school programs, and nannying for a child with a physical disability and speech delays. I have experience with many different disabilities including Autism Spectrum Disorder, speech delays, developmental delays, physical disabilities, and more. I have experience working with kids using AAC devices and also know basic ASL. I love bringing a variety of fun creative projects to explore with kids! I am always open to learning more about your loved one's needs and interests to find accessible and enjoyable experiences for us to do together.
