Help with Special Needs Care Services

Every child is different, as is every family, but there are common concerns that link parents of children with special needs, including the challenge of finding appropriate care and accommoda- tions. With this in mind, Care.com, the premier source of trust- worthy family care options, launched special needs care services to help address the distinctive care needs of this significant yet often overlooked segment of the population. Navigating child care options alone can be overwhelming for any family and addi- tional consideration must be given when deciding on care for a child with special needs. Sheila Lirio Marcelo, Founder and CEO of Care.com, (www.care.com) is able to address why this is an important segment to take into consideration, offer advice on some steps families should consider when planning for special needs care as well as address the different types of special needs care options available.
