Hello! My name is Casey. I am recently graduated from Oberlin College. I am very passionate about working with children with special needs. I am currently working in a classroom for children with special needs. I have worked at a summer camp for kids with special needs as both a counselor and a cabin head for 6 years and intend on returning for many more. I have volunteered with an Autism support group in Rochester for 2 winters and have also volunteered with Buddy Up Tennis, a program that teaches young individuals with Down syndrome tennis and conditioning skills. I have worked with many diagnoses and I am more than willing to learn more about any specific diagnosis. I am trained in transfers for little buddies in wheelchairs. I can help with anything from full assists to behavior modification plans, homework, and getting to the next level in their favorite video game. I am almost fluent in Spanish and have some experience with ASL. I also play ukulele if your child is into that!
