Hi! I've been teaching special education for 13, going on 14, years and I absolutely love what I do. I currently teach in a preschool special needs classroom and have experience supporting children from ages 2 through the teenage years with a wide range of disabilities and behaviors. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have a Master's degree in Education with certification in special education and early childhood education. I especially love working with children who need a little extra patience, structure, and individualized care. If you're looking for weekend support, help over school breaks, or academic support, I would love to connect with your family! I really enjoy building long-term relationships with the families I support and being someone they can consistently rely on and lean on. I would love the chance to meet your family and support you in whatever way you need. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me! Thank you!
