Virginia Beach Special Needs Care

Hello! My name's Amanda and I worked as a speech therapist in a home healthcare setting for 2 years with clients ages 4-19 diagnosed with a range of disabilities to include: Autism Spectrum Disorder, Epilepsy, Cerebral Palsy, Sensory Integration Disorder, Motor Speech Disorders (such as Dysarthria and Apraxia of Speech), and other speech and language related deficits. I worked as a clinical speech intern in a specialized Autism public school affiliated program for 3 months. At my internship, I learned valuable ABA skills to help regulate the child's behaviors and emotional responses both effectively and positively. I am so passionate about helping those with special needs and would love to care for your loved one. NOTE: ***I am available to work Saturdays only as I am a full time graduate student during the week. *** Let's connect!

I recently graduated from Meredith College and I am trying to gain more experience in order to pursue my interest in Occupational therapy. I have an 11-year-old brother with Down syndrome and have been working with special needs children for the past 4 years. I worked for several companies in NC, providing respite, in-home skill building, and personal care for individuals with autism and tuberous sclerosis. I have such a passion for working with children with special needs and have learned a lot by having a special needs brother.

My experience with special needs is I currently work as an instructional assistant with a company with many autism children, running many programs and identifying behaviors. I love my job due to my patience with my now 18-year-old autism brother whom I've dealt with all my life. I also have a 22-year-old husband with Cystic Fibrosis and I've helped him with his medications, breathing treatments and other things he needs.

More than 10 years of experience working with children who have autism. I have administered meds as needed, assisted with occupational therapy, and I am currently working for Norfolk Public Schools in an Autism Program at Blair Middle School.

I especially enjoy working with individuals with Special Needs. I have experience caring for children with Autism (both high and low on the spectrum), Asperger's, and Williams Syndrome. I, however, welcome the opportunity to get to know and assist all children in their developmental growth. I have various family members with special needs so I definitely have developed the patience needed to help nurture and assist others. I'm currently seeking a part-time position ranging from 25-30 hours a week. I do however welcome short-term jobs as well as date nights and last minute childcare needs. I love to laugh, tell corny jokes, and have a good time. To find out more about me please feel free to message me. -Austin-
