I have worked as an aid to an Autistic and Blind child in a preschool. I also taught a special needs toddler class. Most recently, I was a foster mom to a child with special needs. He came to us non verbal, delayed and very aggressive. After a year of working with him is saying 1-3 word sentences and his aggression has decreased dramatically. I have a heart for kids with special needs. I love watching them grow and learn new things. I am willing to learn and do whatever it takes to help the child.
