I have worked as a paraprofessional for four consecutive years at the high school level. In the school setting I have worked one on one and in small group settings with children who have special needs, including those who have Autism, emotional disabilities, developmental delays, Specific Learning Disabilities, and more. I have also taken care of a girl part-time who has severe Autism (non-verbal) when she was between the ages of 9-11. I have a strong love and passion for children with special needs, and if you are looking for a nurturing caregiver, I am the one you are looking for.
