With over five years of experience as a special education teacher and 10 years as a caretaker, I bring a deep understanding of how to support children and adults with diverse needs, especially those on the autism spectrum. I specialize in creating structured, sensory-friendly environments and using individualized strategies to foster communication, social interaction, and emotional regulation. As a caregiver, I apply my classroom expertise to provide consistent, nurturing support that promotes both independence and joy in daily routines. My experience developing IEPs, collaborating with families, and mentoring new educators allows me to bring a professional, empathetic, and team-oriented approach to every caregiving relationship.
