• I was responsible for picking up groups of our special needs students, transporting them safely and on time to their schools to receive their specialized instruction and support. There were wide age ranges, and wide levels of ability, so it was very important to help the parent felt listened to, and to make the child feel safe and secure in their car seat, as needed, or safe in their regular seats on the van.
• While driving these children, I was able to check on them very often, and pull over to address any behaviors that needed to be corrected, move the car seats if needed, and keep all children safe and i would turn it into a fun song to sing, or at times we just spoke a bit about what occurred and next, we would brainstorm ways, in a guided manner, about how to handle the situation differently the next time.
