I have worked with individuals with special needs in a family and educational setting in Pennsylvania for almost six years before moving to Florida. I received my Early Childhood Degree that was also specialized in children with special learning needs. I worked as a preschool teacher and accommodated the education of children with varying abilities and needs. I have found in my experiences that being around individuals with special needs has always felt enjoyable and natural to me.
