Part Time Support for Kids with Developmental Disabilities
Description
Recognizing that there is an unmet need for additional support for children with autism and other developmental disabilities, I want to offer my support to those families. After 6 years working in homes and centers and a Bachelor’s degree in Health and Community Services, I have developed a strong ability to support those with developmental disabilities and to empower them in their own worlds. I frame my work with a holistic perspective, recognizing each child as a whole individual with unique interests, capacities, social frame, and needs. Working in your home, I want to help you develop a plan to support the needs of your growing child and to support the ongoing development of your child. If you already have existing therapies and interventions in place, I am very happy to work with those and to help implement them.
Rate: $30/hr

For your comfort, I am willing to meet first in a public location for an initial meeting/assessment/interview before we finalize any agreement.
Please contact me if you are interested.
My experience is working with children with autism (primarily ages 3 to 10; a couple other diagnoses as well). I have experience working with Occupational Therapist (OT) direction and with Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) direction to meet those goals. I have been trained in ABA Therapy, though prefer to focus my lens on a whole-being and holistic approach that centers the child and their interests first. I also have experience in supporting families in understanding the needs of their children and in adapting their world to best support their child’s development. I am not currently associated with any organization to offer these services, but I can provide you with a clear criminal record check (vulnerable sector) and a copy of my first aid - CPR C certificate.
