Hello. I have been working in the special needs field for 5 years now year round. I have grown up around special needs kids and started working with special needs children when I was 18. I have worked with kids ages 3-21 with special needs and have worked with all types of disabilities. I am currently a teacher of students with disabilities. I know a little bit of basic sign language to be able to use some communication with non verbal children. I love working with children with disabilities.
