I am a fully qualified and experienced early childhood worker who works between several kindergartens as an ECW I also do support work in kindys and highschool, I have a diploma in childrens services with first aid training and hold a current police clearance. I believe all children have the right to be included and experience what every other child can do so have a passion for working with children with special needs. I have 2 children who are now 14 and 16 yrs old, my youngest has ASD and ADHD so I have lots of experience with Autism as well as significant additional needs, My eldest is anaphylactic. I have also worked with children in wheelchairs who use PODS or Proloquo for communication. I am also happy to help with any housework needed if your children require night care and are asleep, Some families I help with washing or ironing.
