I've been working in childcare since 2019 and have several years of experience supporting children with special needs, particularly those on the autism spectrum. I'm patient, attentive, and passionate about creating a safe, understanding environment where every child can thrive. I've worked closely with younger children who are nonverbal, sensory-sensitive, and those who benefit from structured routines and emotional support. I understand how important it is to meet each child where they are, and I adapt my approach to fit their unique needs and personality. I'm also experienced in communicating with parents, using visual schedules, and maintaining a calm, comforting presence during meltdowns or challenging transitions. Whether it's play-based learning, one-on-one support, or just being a consistent, kind presence in their day, I'm here to help with patience, empathy, and dedication.
