I Love My Job

Pediatric Occupational Therapist Assistant

I work with children with all sorts of disabilities and I love it!  I especially love working with autistic kids and children with Down Sydrome.  The facility I work in is non-profit and small and the people I work with are wonderful.  It's a fun place to work.

    it takes a special person to do what we do, I'm in special ed also. We are so grateful for our OT's and the job that you do! Down's is one of my favorites to work with too, there is just something so sweet about them.
