Yo dudes..
I am just looking for some insight on working with children with additional needs. I have had some experience myself, but I am looking more, at people who have got long term experiences with working with children with additional needs.
I currently work in childcare, and I have always had a passion for working with children with additional needs, however I just wanted to kind of get an idea, before I make any decisions.
I know that I could Google this, however I feel like it would benefit me to get an idea from the community on here.
Thank you in advance

Both my placements I did a lot of work with children with additional needs. What kind of thing where you looking for?

My second placement I had a child who had Social and Emotional difficulties. The little boy did not have English as his first language, after speaking to his parents, they allowed me to work with thier child on a one to one bases, slowly over the 4 months I was there I noticed the little lad improve a lot, he was talking to other children, mixing well, had a better relationship with. The parents where able to say that he was coming out of his shell more at home and things too. That in it's self was an amazing thing to hear.
The challenging things would be, with a large group of kids, kindof like if one's having a bad day you have to watch how you deal with it so it does not have a negative impact on the rest of the children. Trying to make sure that everything is suitable for all the children and making sure that it's something that they will all enjoy is extremely stressful.
If I'm 100% honest with you, working with children with special needs has been one of the best experiences of my life. I'd do it all again if I had to. I loved it
I hope that helped a little, if you need/want anything else you know where to find me:)
