Behavioural Interventionists Wanted

One year commitment required, part-time

Are you looking for a new experience that is both unique and rewarding? Are you looking to make a positive impact in someone’s life? Do you like working with children and enjoy a challenge? Then becoming a behavioural interventionist may be the answer!

Description of duties:
You will be working in the home of the child diagnosed on the autism spectrum, as part of a multi-disciplinary team. During your sessions when you work one-on-one with the child, you will model age-appropriate play, communication, and social skills. Together with the child, you will play with puzzles, sing songs, dance and build blocks, push cars and trains, and anything else that the child enjoys. You will incorporate specific goals during play and table-work, and track progress on data-sheets at the end of the session. Each session lasts approximately 3 hours, and you will be asked to work 3-5 sessions per week. Excellent play-skills are required. There will also be a brief team meeting twice a month to discuss the child’s progress and discuss any concerns that may arise from the program.

Qualifications:
-Must be 19 years or older
Experience with small children a must (paid training detailing specific duties is provided). Any experience with special needs children is a definite asset. Applicants with an education in Psychology, Early Childhood Education, Speech Pathology, Occupational Therapy or Physical Therapy are encouraged to apply.
The candidates are required to be self-motivated, extremely reliable, enthusiastic, and possess excellent communication skills. A car and a valid driver’s license is a great asset.

Hi
My name is Lisa and I have just completed the SETA program in Maple Ridge,and am currently waiting to be hired as an SEA with SD 42. I am interested in working with children with Autism and any extra training I can get would be terrific. I would love to join a team in the Ridge Meadows area. What I lack in experience, I make up for with enthusiasm and the drive to learn all I can.
I currently do daycare during the day (until I am hired), so would be available during the evenings.
If you have a spot for me, please email me at como1015@telus.net
Thank you
