Hello! My name is Ciara and I am finishing up my sophomore year at Purdue University where I am pursuing a degree in Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences. I am very experienced with caring for children with special needs and extremely comfortable with it. For the past 4 years I have been caring for a young boy with Autism (12 yo.) I have been involved with Buddy Ball Sports which is a program that encourages children and young adults to be involved in sports despite there physical, mental, or emotional disabilities. I am also a member of the American Special Children's Pilgrimage Group. References are available on request.
