Our foundation is ABA, an evidence-based therapy focused on developing communication, social, and adaptive living skills. Our Model Our centers utilize a unique Therapy Through Play model. We embrace the principles of Reggio Emilia by devising a Natural Environment Teaching (NET), child‑led learning environment to deliver individualized, high‑quality early intervention services in settings that replicate a natural preschool.

Role Overview & Core Details We’re seeking compassionate, reliable individuals to provide 1:1 Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy to children ages 2–6 with Autism Spectrum Disorder. As a Registered Behavior Technician, you’ll work directly with children in a clinic-based setting, helping them build critical life skills through our unique, play-based Reggio ABA approach.
