Greetings from Santiago in the Dominican Republic.
It is my pleasure to be able to share the story of Wilmaris with you:
My name is Wilmaris and I was born in July 2014. I have a condition called Autism Spectrum Disorder. I live with my parents and my little sister.
Two years ago, my parents were very worried about me, because they no longer accepted me at the school where I studied. They sought help from the Fundacion Cuidado Infantil Dominicano. Aunty Nurys started visiting me at home to teach my father how to teach me many things I didn't know how to do, like hanging my clothes on a clotheshanger, put the laces in my tennis shoes, be calmer, sit during the visit, learn the letters of the alphabet and read, express myself better, pronounce the words better. Aunty Nurys comes only once per week but prepares a work plan for me so that my parents can teach me during the week. This way I am learning more every day.
****************************************************
We at the fundación Cuidado Infantil Dominicano are so happy when the parents are very much involved with their children and as a result there are so many improvements. Wilmaris mother has a fulltime job and therefore it is her father that is her teacher.
At the same time we would like to thank you for your many years of continuous support of our programs.
You are very much appreciated!
