I began working with special needs children when I was 15. I have worked one on one in an at home setting doing ABA therapy, taught swim lessons to children with special needs, and worked at a clinic for kids with autism teaching ABA one on one or two on one. I have been trained in ABA multiple times in several different places and plan on going to graduate school to become a BCBA. I have always had a passion for working with children and started gravitating towards those with special needs when I was just a child myself. I also have experience working with sick children as my sister had cystic fibrosis and I was often around for her treatments and other ailments growing up.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE her!!! We hired Darcey to give our son swimming lessons. Our son has severe ADHD, and he is also being tested for autism. Darcey is AMAZING with him! She is loving and patient, but also firm. Our son loves her and so do we! We feel very blessed to have found her, and we are even going to start having her do some date nights for us.
