Hello!! Working with special needs individuals is my passion. All through high school I was involved with best buddies and a muscular dystrophy camp during the summers. After high school I got my CNA and worked as a paraeducator in mild, moderate, and severe classrooms. Through that I became involved in the special Olympics and coached kids and adults in the community. I worked at a psych hospital caring for various special needs and have provided private care for many with special needs as well. I currently work at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta part time. I'm a very caring, responsible person with a lot of love to give. Please message me with any questions!
