I have extensive experience working with individuals with special needs, including children on the autism spectrum (verbal and nonverbal), those with Down syndrome, and others with developmental differences. I have hands-on experience with G-tubes, feeding support, sensory needs, and behavior support. I've been an SLPA for 13 years in both schools and private/virtual settings, working with ages 0 to 30. I also previously worked as a paraeducator in the schools, giving me a strong foundation in classroom and individualized support. I am patient, skilled, and passionate about helping each child feel safe, supported, and successful. I offer parent education to help families support communication, behavior, and daily routines at home.
