Special Education Paraprofessional – Yuba City, CA Area

ProCare Therapy is hiring a full-time Special Education Paraprofessional for a school-based position in the Yuba City area.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working directly with children and wants to bring their experience into a school setting. We’re especially interested in candidates coming from home health, ABA clinics, pediatric clinics, hospitals, direct care, or similar environments who have experience supporting children with special needs.

Experience working with children with autism, developmental disabilities, behavioral needs, or other special needs is highly valued.

Position Details
- $26.00 per hour
- Approximately 30 hours per week
- Monday–Friday
- Full-time school-based position
- School-year assignment
- Weekly paychecks
- Special education classroom and student support

What You’ll Be Doing
- Supporting students in special education classrooms
- Providing individual, small-group, or classroom support
- Assisting students with classroom routines, academics, and transitions
- Reinforcing positive behavior and classroom expectations
- Redirecting students and assisting with behavioral needs when appropriate
- Helping students develop greater independence throughout the school day
- Working closely with teachers, case managers, and other special education staff
- Supporting students with autism and a variety of developmental or learning needs

You’ll have the opportunity to provide consistent support to students while working alongside an established special education team.
