Caregiver

See profile
I've cared for special needs individuals for over 7 years within that time frame I have had an rewarding learning experience. I have been taught true diversity and understanding. This is a rare opportunity to see them developmentally come into their own, have their own opinions and try to make good choices.
I have experience working with special needs students aging from 5-12. I worked in a special education centric school for a year where I helped assist and teach students one on one and in small groups. I have the most experience working with students who have autism spectrum disorder.
