Hi there! I have a little over 5 years professional experience in childcare. and also special needs. . I learned some very creative ways to say no without using the word no through this experience! I gained a lot of confidence in public while dealing with outbursts and overstimulation. I also taught swim lessons with family swim school for about a year where I also gained experience teaching all sorts children many with autism or other disorders. I am happy to say I've learned to love all the quirky and imaginative aspects that working with children and adults on the spectrum come up with. I am also CPR, AED, and pediatric first aid certified!
