Hanna D. - Chicago Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Hanna D.

Part-Time, 6 Years of Experience

I have worked for the past six years as a teacher's assistant in a special education classroom. I have experience with children with special needs, ages 3-11 years old. I have worked with children with mild to severe disabilities. The classroom I work in only has eight children, so I get to work very closely with all the children and learn from all the various therapists that come into the classroom. I know that I do not have experience with infants, but I am willing to learn. I have learned many things in my job for the past six years, and I know that I would be a great fit for a family. I am also a mother of two boys, ages 10 and 12, so I know how important it is to find the right person for your child and your family.
