Joslyn Aymer

Bronx,NY

Summary

My name is Joslyn Aymer. I have worked with cerebral palsy of Westchester almost 15 years. Being able to assist many individuals in daily living is very rewarding to me. It gives me comfort knowing I’m able to put a smile, comfort and just knowing all will be well when I walk in. Due to the high turn over in this field, I’m able to adjust swiftly in making decisions to accommodate both individuals and staff. I am a dedicated worker and also can be very flexible.

If I’m added to your team, I am planning on bringing my skill with ur skilled staffs for the good for the entire agency.
