I'm an experienced childcare and behavioral support professional with 7+ years of experience working with children and individuals with developmental and behavioral needs. My background includes extensive ABA experience with children of different ages, abilities, and backgrounds, including children with autism. I've provided one-on-one support in home, school, community, and residential settings, helping with communication, social skills, emotional regulation, daily living skills, independence, and challenging behaviors. I'm comfortable implementing behavior plans, using positive reinforcement, prompting, skill-building activities, data collection, and collaborating with families and care teams. I've also worked in group-home settings as a Program Manager and have CNA experience supporting personal care, safety, and daily routines. I hold a Master's degree in Psychology and am CPR certified. I'm patient, compassionate, dependable, and believe connection and respect come first.
