I have experience with emotional/developmental disabilities including extensive experience with intractable epilepsy, ADHD, Autism, deafness, and Down Syndrome. I have shadowed many therapies including speech, OT, PT, and ABA. I can accommodate even the most restrictive of diets include ketogenic. Aside from experience, I have much academic knowledge of psychology including abnormal/developmental aspects. I am genuinely compassionate and empathetic with genial attitude and a calm amiable demeanor. I am very patient and perceptive of children that can be difficult for others to read. I have experience with homeschooling, physical needs, low verbal abilities, emotion regulation issues, and aggression. I have experience with lesson-planning and innovative learning strategies; there is a lesson in every game and a game for every lesson. I emphasize vernacular development and communications skills.

    She was late. I also explained she needed to let my son know if she was coming back or not and when. When I asked if she was coming back the next time we had discussed she would not answer. My son has experienced a lot of rude people in his life, I didn't expect it from a care giver I was paying for.
