Experience starting at a young at: -Started with babysitting a family for many years that had a super smart little boy that had been diagnosed with Autism. -Interest continued as I volunteered every Saturday at Miracle Field. A baseball field that was solely made to help kids with special needs learn how to play baseball and have a great time doing it. - In college I started volunteering for a program called The Autism Mentoring Program. This program helped kids at college age learn how deal with roommates, making daily schedules, managing their time wisely, and developing social skills. After doing the Autism Mentoring Program for a year I then became the assistant director for the program until I moved to California. -I have always had a love and interest in children with special needs. I have a very positive and energetic personality and love helping these sweet little spirits with their daily tasks.
