Welcome! I’m Natalie
I’m a high school special education teacher, mom, Nana, and lifelong advocate for neurodiversity and inclusion. My classroom is built on respect, relationships, and the belief that every student is a capable learner. I work with students with extensive support needs, and my approach blends 25+ years of early childhood experience with a deep understanding of sensory regulation, communication, and behavior.
Whether you’re a parent, educator, or just curious—I’m glad you’re here. Let’s celebrate different ways of learning, together.
