Experience: 5 yrs
Hello! My name is Syd, and I have worked in disabilities care for 5 years. I've devoted my career to supporting individuals with physical and or developmental disabilities after spending the pandemic caring for my younger brother who lives (and thrives) with both! I have worked as a special education paraprofessional, registered behavior technician, respite care provider, and specialized in-home supports as a personal care attendant.
Syd is a very kind hearted, dedicated professional with years of experience with special and medical needs children in both the school and clinical settings. She has provided over 7 years of care for both my son who has autism, adhd, and a gtube, as well as my niece who had both a trac and gtube. She is registered behavioral technician and has a college background in social sciences. I highly recommend her for your family, as she is a rare find!
