I cared for a child on and off for 6 years that had special needs. She was 6 years old when I started and she is deaf and has mental disabilities. I began when I was 17 and showed my responsibility with giving her needed medications each day and giving her food intake through a feeding tube. What makes me stand out with children with special needs is that I am passionate about helping them to enjoy life despite the restrictions their disability may cause.
