I've worked with children and adults on the autism spectrum, as well as various other special needs. I'm proficient in ABA strategies to assist individuals to learn to be functionally independent, and techniques helpful in curving "problem" behaviors. I also am available for assistance with toileting, teaching life skills, and other helpful household responsibilities. I LOVE helping, period. I've been in the field of education for 13 years, and in the past 2 years have found my passion in working with individuals with specials needs. My guiding principles come from a place of empathy and understanding. I'm extremely patient, extremely nurturing and I can, and am happy, to help! I'm a teacher, and I'm great at it! my joy in life comes from a place of compassion, hard work, dedication, and love. I love people, I'm a natural teacher, and I am the person to trust in caring for your loved ones.
