Words cannot describe my experience of working with children with special needs, as every day is a new learning experience and a new memory to treasure. I have been working over 10 years with special needs children and I have come to the conclusion that there is no other job more gratifying than this one in which you can make a difference in someone's life. I'm a highly - dedicated, organized, and passionate person willing to take care of your children. I strongly believe that with early intervention, the kids will have positive changes, and this is what really drives me to pursue their happiness. I'm also a yoga instructor for special needs children, and I also have a certification in Reiki.

    Gloria is very kindhearted and developed a good relationship with my son, who has autism. She is trustworthy and reliable. I would recommend her to anyone who is seeking a caregiver for their child with special needs.
