Mom Of Special Needs

My son is 2 years old and has ASD, which has inspired me to find work helping those with special needs. In the summer of 2018 I cared for an 8-year-old with nonverbal autism, and a 3-year-old with epilepsy. In 2019 I cared for another boy around 10 years old with nonverbal autism, but it did not work out due to location.
