Speaks English
I am an accomplished Behavioral Therapist with 10+ years experience working with children and families, and have spent the last 8 years working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. I have extensive training in Applied Behavior Analysis Therapy and related therapy interventions in the home, school, and community environments. With a strong background in child psychology, development, and early education, I bring a unique array of experience, technical skills and a strong work ethic that are well suited for this field. Beyond that, I simply love working with children, typically developing and otherwise. From tiaras and tea parties, to Tonka trucks and toy dinosaurs, imagination and play are two of my specialties. I love to incorporate art and creativity into everyday routines, introduce new literature, and encourage a love for the outdoors. I am currently seeking full-time employment as a nanny or behavioral therapist in the Seattle area.

October 20th, 2013 Dear Hiring Manager: I was initially impressed with Ellie's enthusiasm, communication skills and professional demeanor when I hired her two years ago as a an independent contractor to provide ABA therapy to consulting clients. During the two years Ellie worked with the consulting agency, she consistently demonstrated all of these qualities and more, and I heartily endorse her for any position providing ABA therapy, academic tutoring or child care. Ellie is reliable, dedicated and upbeat. Her ability to build rapport with clients and help them conquer challenging behaviors is unparalleled, and it is because of her excellence in this area that I repeatedly asked her to take on new clients as well as train new therapists. Of particular value to me was Ellie's team player mind-set, enthusiastic embrace of challenges, ability to work with minimal supervision and unwavering commitment to clients and their needs. I regularly received unsolicited praise from clients about Ellie's outstanding level of character and professionalism. Ellie is a hardworking, detail oriented professional. She has my highest recommendation, and I am happy to furnish more details if you would like additional information. Sincerely, Shari
