I am an educator with 15 years of experience in special education as a teacher and administrator. I truly enjoy working with children of all ages and have experience with caring for and working with infants all the way through age 18! I have worked with and supported children and adults with a variety of unique needs including ADHD, intellectual disabilities, Autism, speech and language impairment, and learning disabilities - to name a few. I truly enjoy modeling language to build expressive language and encourage social interaction, developing systems and structures to promote independence, and finding creative ways to make any activity fun and engaging! My aim is to always meet children where they are and provide the supports necessary for them to grow in their skills and confidence. I will be on summer break beginning June 8 through July 19th! I'd love the opportunity to connect and learn more about your family!
