Hello! My name is Ash, I am 23, and I am an experienced caretaker in the Bellingham area. I have been a Certified Behavioral Technician for 3 years, supporting autistic children and adults (as well as their families, teachers) with behavioral challenges. During this time, I also worked as a preschool teacher for about 6 months. Before that, I was a caretaker for adults with developmental disabilities for a year. I am experienced with any and all types of children, regardless of their age, food sensitivities, behavioral or physical challenges. I am also experienced with many types of animals, and have owned cats, dogs, reptiles and rodents in my life. I am very comfortable with administering medication if need be. As for seniors, my time as a Direct Support Professional (for adults with developmental disabilities) gave me a wide range of of experience with all the care needed for adults Read more with limited mobility, speech, and cognition. I hope that I am able to connect with your family soon! I have no doubt in my ability to support your needs, whatever they may be. I am comfortable doing pickup/dropoffs, as well as running errands
