I have 18 years of experience with special needs children. I have grown up with two sisters with severe and profound special needs. I have provided respite care for multihandicapped children as well. I also used to volunteer in the special needs classroom at my high school. Growing up with my two sisters has inspired me to help those who cannot necessarily help themselves.
