CNA

I have experience working with a cerebral palsy young adult. I have a 9-year-old with Tourette disorder, adhd, sensory processing disorder, anemia and she had some language delays. I understand working with special needs by having compassion and an understanding of making the best out of time.
I have only really cared for 2 people with disabilities.... someone who had AIDS, and a woman who is quadraplegic. I myself have ADHD, Major Depressive Disorder, and I have a nephew on the Autism spectrum, so I understand a lot. I'm well-educated and can learn to do many things. I was a teacher for 30 years.
I have worked with children with special needs in a preschool setting ages 3-5 years old for Saint Louis Public Schools. Children ranged from autism to social/behavioral delays. My job was to help them meet IEP goals, and providing them the attention and instruction they needed to be successful at school.
Special education teacher who can individualize your child's needs! I have worked with a variety of needs.
