I have worked with children that have special needs for quite some time; from being a teacher's assistant to having an internship at a local preschool for disabled children, I constantly found myself surrounded by those that needed my help. I hope that in the future I can become an Occupational Therapist.
Hi! I grew up caring for a cousin with special needs, autism. That experience has lent me valuable knowledge and success when caring for other special children. My skills range from care in slow development, autism, to learning disabilities. My approach comes from a place of patience, understanding, and love.
