All children are special. I meet and treat everyone like they NEED reasonable accommodations. Some love my approach, those that don't are vocal and feel I've been condescending. I love 4-year-olds. Special needs is an active approach to listening encouraging and directing the desired behavior

Christie is caring, communicative, reliable and overall amazing with our 2 children (ages 3 and 6). Christie picks our kids up from their schools and watches them. She is attentive at reading their energy and knows when it is a good time to bring them to the playground to let energy out etc. We moved to the area this summer so she has been a huge help with suggesting places to take the kids (library, parks etc). Christie is always punctual and on top of things. She keeps me up to date on things that I need to be aware of (providing details on things I need to bring to school or camp the next day etc.) I feel I can truly rely on Christie to make sure our kids are safe and happy. Our daughter who typically takes a bit longer to warm up gave Christie a hug after their first encounter and now hugs her goodbye every time Christie drops her off. We really appreciate the excellent care Christie provides our children, any family is lucky to work with her!

10+ Years Of Experience With Children Of Different Ages

Responds quickly

I LOVE outdoors! Nature, fresh air, plenty of space to run around and be goofy, sun, parks, swings, and so much more. Your kids will want to play outside a lot, because outdoors is the best place to grow and be creative! My experience includes caring for many children of different ages (including infants), even with those with special needs, such as ADHD. I am all about laughing, crafts, games, bike rides and many other fun things. Now here's a little bit more about me: I have been married for over three years. I love baking, flowers, long outdoor walks, and spending time with friends. I also actively participate in voluntary work, which is the reason why I am only looking for a PART-TIME position (20-30 hours). So please, feel free to reach out to me!

Anastasia was with our family for over a year or more. She was very reliable and dependable. She took great care of our 3-year old at that time. She is friendly and polite and our son really enjoyed his time with her. I would highly recommend her to any family looking for care.

I am the mother and home educator of a teenager with mild intellectual disability (as well as two others-- typically developing). I've been involved in the special needs community in NC for 10 years. I've led a Girl Scout troop for special needs girls and have also started a girls' group for girls with special needs. Within our girls' group, I've started a book club, cooking club, and movie night. As a homeschooler, I'm keenly aware of the diverse educational needs of kids with special needs. I am patient and compassionate. Because I've been facilitating the education of my children for the last 15 years, I don't have current paid experience. My background is in preschool education, and have previously (many years ago) volunteered at a preschool for children with special needs and have also taught at a preschool for typically developing children. I was a nanny for a family with a deaf child, and have rudimentary knowledge of sign language.
