I strongly desire a position working with children and I am very comfortable and experienced with babies, young children, and children with special needs. I have several close friends and acquaintances with significant disabilities and I enjoy being with them and helping them. New people usually respond positively to me and I have often been told that I am very empathetic and resourceful in helping others. I provided for the well being of a child with Fetal Alcohol syndrome from the age of 3 months until 4 years old. I developed a feeding apparatus and special techniques specific to his disabilities and needs to ensure proper nutrition. I also invented a pacifier bottle for him which kept him off the feeding type.
