I started working as a educational assistant for a pre-K in Santa Fe, New Mexico, I worked my way up into being in a high needs classroom with children with autism. I specifically wanted to be in that classroom to learn more about how to work with children with autism, because that is my area of study I worked there for about four years and then I became a full-time nanny in Albuquerque New Mexico and then worked at a Headstart in Grants, New Mexico with children ages 1 to 2. I also did work with a family for about a year and a half on the weekend part-time private nanny.
