Carrie-Ann says, “I’m looking forward to connecting with you and your child! My background is in special education and this influences how I work with all children. Individualization and differentiation is essential for growth, success, and confidence in learning- and I hope to bring this to your child.  After teaching and supervising for years, I took a break to have my own kids. Recently, I’ve returned to advocacy work with families- but I’ve realized I miss working directly with children (not just adults!). My current goal is to make space for both. When I’m not with my kids or working, I’ve returned to being a student myself- taking art courses, woodworking classes, and certifying in Wilson Fundamentals. I like to read, draw, and travel wherever they fit in. I hope we can work together, and I hope to hear more about your child, their strengths, and where they need extra support!”
