Ever since my younger brother was diagnosed with Autism at age 4, I have been passionate about working with special needs children. I have worked with many kinds of special needs children. From children with hearing aids who were non-verbal, to autism, and even Down syndrome. I am looking forward to finding another family to help, and another child to give care to. I do not only watch special needs children, but this is my specialty. This past year I was a nanny for a family with triplet 2-year-old boys. So believe me when I say I have patience! I look forward to hearing from you. I have different things that I picked up along the way, while helping my brother learn.
