Hi I'm Shira! I majored in early childhood and elementary education in undergrad and completed my masters in special education with a focus on autism and developmental disabilities at UT. Most recently I was working as a special education Life skills teacher in AISD. I have experience working with children of all ages and disabilities. I am passionate about what I do and truly love working with children. I am energetic, caring and organized. I have run various sports camps for elementary aged children, worked 1:1 in home/at school as an ABA therapist for children with autism and intellectual disabilities, and worked in both general education and special education classrooms. I am looking for part-time nanny/babysitting positions!
