Hello, I work as a Behavior Interventionist in the South Surrey area and I'm looking to join another team sometime in September. I plan on attending Surrey College and taking The Applied Behavior Analysis Support Worker Certificate Program. My goal is to eventually work full-time in the school district.
I’m a nurturing, caring person who loves working in the ABA field. I truly enjoy making a difference in a child’s life. I’m also a journalism graduate and a certified hairdresser. I have over five-year’s experience working in a daycare environment.
I am looking to join another team in the area working four to six hours a week. I would prefer shifts that begin in the morning/late morning because this works out better for my family as I have a little one at home myself. My availability for sessions are Tuesday mornings, Wednesday at 12:15 p.m. and Thursday mornings. Back-to-back shifts that go into the afternoon would work as well. I hope to find a good match and to start work sometime in September.

Please email me if you think I would be a good fit for your family.

Thank-you,

Zoe
