I have experience working with children and adults with special needs ranging from Autism to cerebral palsy and much in between. I have experience with seizures, G tubes, mobility issues, behavioral issues related to Autism and much more. I have accompanied children and adults to doctor's visits and remained with them and communicated on their behalf during hospital stays. There is not much that I don't have experience with when it comes to children with special needs, but more importantly I deeply enjoy spending time with them and I fully understand the level of accountability and warmth required when caring for a person who is compromised. I also fully understand the level of flexibility required as children with special needs grow and work to overcome new challenges.
