Professional Profile I have extensive experience working with both children and adults across educational and caregiving settings. With over 30 years of professional experience, I have dedicated my career to teaching, mentoring, and providing compassionate care. Originally from Tajikistan, I have been living and working in the United States for the past 17 years. In Tajikistan, I worked as a teacher in both school and college settings, and also trained and mentored other teachers in modern teaching methods. This experience helped me develop strong leadership, communication, and instructional skills. In the United States, I have worked in various caregiving roles — providing support for elderly individuals with Alzheimer’s, dementia, spinal injuries, and other physical and cognitive challenges. I also have extensive experience working with children of all ages, from infants (six months old) to teenagers. Currently, I work in a high school with students who have special needs, including autism, Read more Down syndrome, and other developmental conditions. I also have experience supporting children with asthma, diabetes, and liver or kidney conditions. My professional journey has shaped me into a compassionate, patient, understanding, and dedicated person. I value honesty, punctuality, and integrity in all circumstances. I always strive to create a safe, caring, and positive environment for those in my care. In addition to my professional skills, I take pride in maintaining cleanliness, organization, and preparing healthy meals — as I believe these are essential parts of caregiving. I am reliable, responsible, and able to follow established protocols and safety procedures with great attention to detail. I am not afraid of challenges and can work effectively under any circumstances. I am fluent in English, Russian, and Farsi, which allows me to communicate and connect easily with people from diverse cultural backgrounds.

Mrs. Z is truly extraordinary with my two boys. She brings a warm and nurturing presence into our home that makes a significant difference in their lives. Not only is she attentive and loving, but she also has a natural ability to engage with them through play, turning daily activities into fun learning experiences. She skillfully balances playtime with important lessons, ensuring that they not only enjoy their time together but also learn valuable skills and concepts. Safety is always a top priority for her; she meticulously watches over them while granting them the freedom to explore and discover the world around them. Routine is essential for young children, and Mrs. Z expertly maintains a structured schedule that helps the boys feel secure and grounded. What stands out the most is the genuine care she shows; she treats them with the same love and attention she would offer her own children, creating a bond built on trust and affection. Thanks to her, I have peace of mind knowing that my boys are in such capable and loving hands.
