Laura’s Bio
I am interested in serving families who need assistance caring for or supporting someone they love with special needs. I recognize that each individual's abilities as well as the needs of each family are unique, and I center my care model on assessing the individualized strengths and interests of each individual.
I worked for 13 years in pediatrics as a board certified music therapist, and one year managing community engagement initiatives for a major symphony orchestra. My passion in both of those roles was working with people with special needs and abilities.
I am unable to provide total care with heavy lifting. I do not have experience administering medications but could learn. I am looking for intermittent part time work. Thank you for your consideration!
