I first began working with special needs individuals 14 years ago. I had an autistic child in my preschool class, who absolutely stole my heart. This led me to my next job where I worked with special needs individuals of all ages, for 10 years. I have worked with both ends of the spectrum, from very mild to very severe. I also received my bachelor's degree for psychology with a minor in human development. Between my education & experience I am confident I can provide parents with the comfort of knowing their loved one is in wonderful hands.
