I have the passion and love to care for children with special needs. My brother whom I raised was born at 6 months and had a lot of medical problems from being born early. Since I had to help care for him it gave me the experience and knowledge working with special needs. I have experience with children who have Seizures, Hydrocephaly, Microcephaly, Autism, Ppd, Add, Adhd, Aspergers, Developmental Delays, Avs, Apnea, etc. I was a preschool teacher for 5 years and worked with special needs kids in my class as well as raising 2 special needs kids of my own and babysitting a autistic child who I absolutely adore and the parents love me and trust only me to care for him when they have to do errands.
