Hello! I have a lot of experience working with people with special needs. -I was a personal care giver to a young man with special needs for 2 years. He did not have a specific diagnosis, but was partially verbal and had some physical differences. -I am currently a special education paraprofessional at an elementary school, working with kids with different needs. I spend the majority of my day with a kindergartener who uses a wheel chair. - I have a few other volunteer experiences working with children and adults with special needs. - I have also had experience as a nursing assistant, so have safety monitoring experience, as well as general health care knowledge. Good luck on your search! Katie
