Hi there. I am a caring, patient, educated woman in her thirties with life long experience with handicapped/special needs children (as I grew up with a special needs sibling). I have worked in a school setting with a vast population of classified children, as well as privately in the home as a nanny for special needs children. I am familiar with autism, CP, SB, NI and other classifications including physical disabilities as well (ie. hemifacial-microsomia). I absolutely love and care deeply for special needs children.
