Hello! My name is Colleen and I would love to help your family with your child with special needs! Your baby sounds so precious, I knew I had to reach out! I have been working with children for over 10 years now, the last 6 specializing in children with special needs. I was the designated special needs swim instructor for 3 years at the YMCA due to my patience and skills. I have been a head Jiu Jitsu instructor for a few years now at my local gym where I also work with new children who have special needs, getting them acclimated to a new sport and environment. I spent a few years working in the infant room at a day care, and one of the babies had some special eating routines, so I am comfortable with that process! Currently I help out in the infant room at my church which I love. We have a child with some developmental delays that I really enjoy working with. I would love to answer any questions you have and get to know you better. I look forward to speaking with you!
