Always Helpful

I've worked in special needs schools at level 4 for around 4 years and below, I have a special needs brother that I've cared for my whole life. Super easy to talk with and super fun!
I have worked as an Early Childhood Teacher before and l worked with children with special needs. I have experience and it is good to also learn more each and every day as you get to have more experience in the field. Children with special needs are to be cared for with love, patience, kindness and empathy.
