Special Need Teaching & Care For The Elderly
Parker,CO
Summary
I am writing to express my interest in roles related to teaching, elder care support, and working with children with special needs. With extensive experience in these areas, I am confident in my ability to contribute positively to your team.
Currently, as an In-Home Care Childcare Specialist with Cultural Care, I support children with premature-related disabilities and autism, providing physical training and educational tutoring. I tailor teaching methods to each child’s learning style, enhancing their independence and educational outcomes.
In my role as Lead Front Desk Trainer at Health At Last, I developed training programs and SOPs to streamline front desk operations. I trained staff on medical billing, patient check-ins, and appointment scheduling, reducing training time and increasing efficiency.
Previously, as a Senior Care In-Home Lead Aide at Roberts Caring Heart Child Support Center, I implemented healthcare plans, assisted seniors with physical therapy, and provided personal hygiene and emotional support, fostering confidence and independence among clients.
As a Teacher’s Aide at Roberts Caring Heart Child Support Center, I supported children with special needs, executing therapy plans and teaching nonverbal communication methods. I developed strong relationships with families and improved children’s ability to communicate and function independently.
My dedication to compassionate, patient-centered care, combined with my experience, makes me well-suited for these roles. I look forward to discussing how my skills align with your needs.
Thank you for considering my application
