About Caitlin

Hello, My name is Caitlin Young and I am currently a college student on summer vacation. I have a passion for helping people and I love bringing smiles to people's faces. The last two years I have found my passion for helping people by offering care for individuals with developmental disabilities. Working as a substitute in an activity center for adults with disabilities sparked my love of helping people. This past year I have been an assistant/aid for a teenage boy with Autism. He has come so far in this past year. His crowing achievement will happen this fall when he leaves home school and goes on to mainstream high school. I could not be more proud of him! I am a fun loving, active, and very creative person. I would love to help about your summer job opportunities.

(Hourly rate is negotiable depending on level of care required) Being a caregiver for 15 years and loving this career! Ever-since being introduced to this career, I have acquired the passion and enthusiasm into taking care of, not only seniors, but people of all age groups who desperately require care and assistance and having to make them feel secure and happy in their own environment, homes and communities and making an impact in their lives so that they may get through each day with comfort and peace. I am very passionate with the work I do. I have taken care of several patients in the past from which I have had many different experiences with, which involved bathing, laundry, toilet assistance, hoyer lift, meal preparation, feeding, using feeding machine, medication, doctor/nurse visits, dental appointments and moreso with hospice cases.
