I have a strong background in child care and development, including hands-on experience as an ABA Therapist working with children of various ages and needs, including those on the autism spectrum. My experience includes designing personalized intervention plans, facilitating social skills groups, and providing one-on-one support to foster cognitive, social, and emotional growth. I have also worked with children in group and home settings, ensuring their safety and promoting positive behavior. I am CPR-certified and Safety Care trained, which equips me to handle emergencies with confidence and care. Additionally, my skills include behavior management, functional communication training, toileting, and creating structured environments that encourage learning and exploration. My bilingual abilities in English and Amharic allow me to connect effectively with families from diverse backgrounds. I’m passionate about providing nurturing, supportive care that helps children thrive.
