Monica
Birth date: November 1995
Ethno-Cultural Background: Caucasian
Let me tell you about a beautiful little red headed girl who needs some guidance and support to succeed in this world. She trusts everyone and gets along with both children and adults but really needs some help to determine who she can trust in this world.
Monica is affectionate and bubbly and loves to be a helper. She has a great capacity to appreciate the things in her life. This young lady takes the bus to school and loves the interaction it provides. Monica has a Teaching Assistant at school as well as an Individual Education Plan and does well with the additional support. She loves her school day and makes friends easily.
Monica has some medical concerns that require ongoing professional involvement. Her new family will need to be strong advocates for her to ensure Monica gets all the help she needs. Her family will also need to be prepared to negotiate some form of openness with members of Monica’s birth family who live on the lower mainland.
Monica’s new family could include other children and pets. She does well with both. Monica has some difficulty sleeping so would do better with a room of her own. If you ask Monica to describe herself, she would show you her best smile and tell you “this is my happy face”. What a delightful little girl!
