I have 5+ years experience working in the public school system in special education, and working with individuals with disabilities has become my passion and focus. I am comfortable working with kids who have any level of disability, and am skilled in staying calm in tense situations where a child may be dysregulated or have significant needs. I have learned that the most important thing is to form a meaningful relationship with children to create a bond of trust so I can help them when they are struggling. I can't wait to help care for your precious loved one!
