For the past four years I worked at a school for children with autism in Palm Beach County. I have now recently relocated to the Orlando area and am interested in at-home care giving. I have worked with all functioning levels and also have an 8-year-old non-verbal sister with autism. Working with children is my passion and while working with children with special needs I am there to make sure their specific needs are met and to create a positive, fun-loving environment for your child.

    July 26, 2013. To Whom It May Concern: As Principal of a learning center, I am delighted to recommend to you a great member of our staff, Ms. Megan M. Our center is a Palm Beach County public charter school for children with autism spectrum disorders. She has been a paraprofessional with us since August of 2009, working with students ages 3 through 14. Prior to her working with us as an employee, Megan often volunteered at the center while she was in middle and high school. She began employment as a part-time employee in our after school care program and became full-time in 2009. She is a respected and effective instructor. Megan is an exceptional employee. She demonstrates excellent work ethics. She is energetic and creative in her approach with the students. Megan is well respected by staff and works well with our team of professionals. She is very flexible and willing to work in a variety of settings. Megan definitely has the gift of working with children with special needs. She is sensitive to their individual needs and the children respond to her sensitivity in a positive manner. Overall, Megan is a very conscientious and competent employee. She demonstrates excellent organizational skills. Her skills in the area of applied behavior analysis are solid. She continually strives to gain knowledge in many areas in and out of her field. It has been a pleasure watching Megan mature into the kind, respectful, and competent young adult she is today. Please feel free to call or write if you have any additional questions. Sincerely yours, Debra A. J.
