Music and dog lover who thinks children are wise and hilarious. New to the area and hoping I can be of assistance to you and your family. I had a nephew with CP who passed away 6 months ago at age 5. He taught me a lot about CP. I have also babysat for children who live with CP and autism. I spent 1 semester helping high-school students in special education classes or who were physically impaired to receive their high school gym credit and graduate with their diploma. I use some sign language for ECE and can lean into that if I need to. I also have experience with Spanish-speaking and nonverbal children, as well as children who speak other languages and have cultures I do not. As an ECE teacher the last 4 years, I have taught young children with ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, and Agenesis of the Corpus Callosum.
