Hello, My name is Lana. I have 22 years experience caring for children with special needs. My own daughter had autism and a ring chromosome abnormality. I lost her in 2007, which almost killed me too. I know what it's like to be a mother with a child with disabilities, and know just how special these children really are. I know how hard it is to leave them, and especially who you leave them with. You wonder if the person will get abusive or not really watch them like you would. I know how it is. I have been in the same position.. So please be sure to really check someone out before you leave your angel with them.
