Special Needs Entertainment

You want someone who is sensitive to the needs and quirks of your guests with special needs. You also want your loved ones treated with respect.

​

You couldn't have picked a better Entertainer.

 

My name is Kathy Buskett, I'm a professional Caricaturist, and I have three kids with special needs of my own, and I homeschool them all! (That's what I do when I'm not busy entertaining people!)

 

I'm the best choice for your special needs event, or your inclusive event and I'll explain why in a moment.

​

But first - PICTURES!  Here's a few recent clients I have worked with that are special needs oriented.

Introducing
My Family

Grace

Grace is my firstborn. She is 22 and has Down's Syndrome. She works at Publix as a bagger in Point Clear, AL and says it's her dream job. I continue to homeschool her so she can retain what she's learned. She loves to color, sing, and is very creative. She is currently teaching herself to write a book! She also has verbal apraxia, which is kind of like dyslexia but for speech. She also has Nystagmus (visual impairment), and was born with a Complete AV Canal heart defect that was corrected when she was a baby.

Daniel
Daniel is my middle child but he's so much more like a firstborn,  since he's taken over that role due to his sister's impairment. (This doesn't make her any less bossy, however!) Daniel is 15 and is interested in all things tech. He has his own YouTube channel that gets thousands of views where he discusses video games. He is a lego master builder and a budding cartoonist. He is my gifted child. And yes gifted is also special needs! 

Matty
Matty is my lastborn. He just turned 14.

He has ADHD and I don't medicate but use natural methods. I have ADHD too, by the way.  Matty is extremely intelligent and bright though he struggles due to his ADHD. But ask him about World War Two and he will tell you stories you never heard of. He also is intensely interested in Coins, Military history, military planes, and the Titanic.

 

He can also draw like nobody's business and I would not be surprised if he doesn't become a caricaturist like his mom AND dad.

This is my husband Mike. He grew up in a foster home with 15 kids and had emotional issues resulting from abandonment when we met. Mike has really healed over these past 8 years. THe bible says God puts orphans into families and thats what He did with Mike.

God is a restorer!

​

We married after my late husband passed away and he became a dad for the first time immediately -  Instadad! He's doing a great job too.

 

He also runs his own business transporting people to and from the airport, probably has inattentive ADHD, and sings and plays guitar and is licensed to preach and marry people!

And this is me. My name is Kathy Buskett. I turned 50 last year and ill give you a dollar if you can guess what bucket list thing I did for my 50th birthday when I meet you (just ask)

​

I have ADHD, I homeschool my 3 teenagers, run them around to extracurriculars, run a business, write my own website, take art commissions, and sing and play piano for our house church. Im also writing a book and And I try to leep my house reasonably clean AND I cook all the meals. Just call me the energizer bunny!

You're in good hands with Me!

I know firsthand what it's like to be a caretaker and how much you want your child or loved one to have a wonderful birthday or other special event, and how hard it is at times for them to make friends. I will be their friend and yours too.

​

I also have two nephews with autism. One also has a Traumatic Brain Injury. I grew up with a brother who had ADHD and TBI. And I have ADHD myself! (that's my superpower that helps me draw so fast!) 

​

I have drawn and taught art to all types of students including those with autism, ADHD and Down's Syndrome and many others of differing abilities.

​

Years ago before I was a caricaturist, I worked in nursing homes as an Activities Director, and I also worked and lived in a group home for teenagers with behavior issues.

​

My sensitive portrayal of people of all abilities will delight you. 

​

Your loved ones are in good hands with Me!
