Rachel Walker
I have been working as a Family Support Worker at CAAS since 2007 when we were based at Pinner Green. I have 2 sons, my elder son, aged 21, has ASD, ADHD and Learning Difficulties. When my son was young I struggled to find support to help him so took a "Leave of Absence" from my work with an International Corporation and never went back.
The favourite part of my job is meeting parents and families and supporting them with the CAAS team through the year (s) of diagnosis, through primary and high school, onto college or university and beyond. Every week I remember the difficulties we had in the Early Years and want to help families help their children. Apart from being a Mother, this is the most rewarding jobs I have ever had with the best Team.
