About Skylar

I became a caregiver because I like to care for others who can not care for themselves. I enjoy most about being a caregiver the ability to cheer residents up when they are down with my enthusiasm and positive attitude. My personal achievement I am most proud of is making others feel good about them selves.

I have been a Case Manager with a DHS caseload for child welfare cases and also a Substance Abuse Case Manager & Program Coordinator for a state funded drug & alcohol treatment program. I have also done remedial or behavioral intervention services as they call it now with chronically mentally ill children with severely disruptive behaviors. There really isn't a population in human services I haven't worked with. I really love my work. I'm not in it for the money. No one works this field for the money. You have to have the heart for it! I look forward to working with you & your family!!
