I have been retired for over 3 years now from 15 years of teaching Special Education. I worked primarily with children with autism, and other developmental disabilities, in a small, structured teaching classroom. Prior to that, I worked with adults in a Vocational Rehabilitation setting for 11 years. The past 3 years, I have provided care giving services to children and adults through Care. com.

    If you have the opportunity to hire Susan W. as your caretaker, I would recommend strongly that you do so. She watches our three children (ages 3, 7, and 11 w/special needs) three to four times a month and it is an absolute pleasure to have her in our home. Susan comes to our home on time, cheerful and ready to engage the children with dramatic play and other enriching activities. She is also a hard worker and professional.
