Ever since grade school I have had a unique passion for special needs children. My best friend until I was about 14 was autistic so I know a lot about autism. I have been babysitting for about 5 years now for family, friends, neighbors, and have been referred to many others. I've worked with children that have had cystic fibrosis, autism & down syndrome. Also children that are deaf or blind. I feel like I connect well with special needs kids because I have always been around them!
