Leslie M. - Virginia Beach Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Leslie M.

Full-Time, 9 Years of Experience

For the past seven years, I have been a nanny, and I always loved my job. One of the seven children has an autistic spectrum disorder and I was involved in his ABA-based program. The past two years I have also worked part time as an in-home trainer for an adolescent who also has an autistic spectrum disorder. I have a Bachelor's degree in Special Education from Old Dominion University. It would be a pleasure for me to get to know your child and give you some free time or allow you to work.
Related Hobbies and Interests
I enjoy being outside and I think that it is very important for children to be outside as much as their needs and routine will tolerate. I also enjoy reading and volunteering with animals.
