I have worked with special needs children for three and a half years. I love the uniqueness and spontaneity that exists within the minds and hearts of these children. I receive a great deal of joy and reward when I can offer assistance to both the kids and their families. My experience is with a wide range of ages, from infancy to middle school, so I feel that I am very adaptable and flexible with whomever it is I encounter. In my personal life I am very artistic as I have an interest in drawing, sculpting, painting and costuming. I feel that art and music are things that promote both education and personal development and should be nurtured in children from very early on. I strive to be engaging and relate-able on a level that children identify with while maintaining instructional control and using reinforcement techniques to promote compliance. I hope to be someone that parents will see as a help to their family and children can see as an exciting new addition! Also, I am not CPR Certified however I am willing to do so!
