Jaida from Taiwan

Gladney Superkids program is hopeful to travel to Taiwan in 2023. Please watch here for updates. If interested in volunteering, email superkids@gladney.org. Join me as we introduce Jaida! Jaida was born in 2014 and is 7.5 years old. Jaida has an active and playful imagination. She LOVES to pretend she is a doctor visiting patients and enjoys playing pretend school! Jaida enjoys drawing, playing with building blocks, and riding her bicycle. She is not shy around strangers and easily establishes friendships with her peers. Jaida has a diagnosis of Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency (Type 1), hearing loss in her right ear, and overall global developmental delays. Jaida attends special education classes. Her teacher reports that she is highly motivated and catches on quickly to newly introduced lessons. Jaida recently learned how to write her name, and she's starting to learn Mandarin phonetic symbols! Can you imagine being Jaida’s student as she teaches you how to write a few words in Mandarin? If you think you could be the right family for Jaida, don’t hesitate to reach out to superkids@gladney.org to learn more about how to review her file! To protect a child's privacy, Taiwan has strict rules limiting public photos of children. To see more photos of Jaida, request to join Gladney's PRIVATE Taiwan Waiting Child Advocacy group on Facebook.
