Hi! My name is Shannon and I am currently living in Philadelphia. I graduated from University of Pennsylvania last May and have worked at Anderson Center for Autism helping adolescent boys with learning and behavioral challenges achieve their individual goals. I have been babysitting since I was 12 and absolutely love kids of all ages. I have extensive experience working with individuals with a wide array of challenging behaviors associated with developmental disorders, including children with limited verbal capabilities. Specifically, I have worked with preschool aged children diagnosed with autism, ADHD and epilepsy, as well as teenage/ young adult boys with autism, bipolar disorder, and other challenging behaviors. Much of this experience came while working as a supervisor at Camp Ramapo in Rhinebeck, NY as well as at Anderson Center for Autism. Let me know if you have any questions and thank you so much for your consideration!

    I had a pleasant interview. Shannon seemed well qualified and it seemed she was taking a PT position. I have not heard from her in almost two weeks. I have sent three messages with no response. I do understand that a job may not be a good fit and you may decide to go another way, but please be professional, and at the very least, courteous. I am continually amazed at the lack of professionalism and respect from young adults looking for employment. A simple message would be appreciated.
