Castro Valley, California, United States Centria Autism Full time

We are looking for individuals to fill the role of Special Needs Child Care Specialist at Centria Autism.

Overview

Centria Autism is a dedicated team that provides support and care to children with autism. We are passionate about helping each child reach their full potential, and we believe that every individual deserves the opportunity to thrive.

Salary and Benefits

The salary range for this position is $20-$23 per hour. In addition to a competitive hourly rate, our employees also enjoy a range of benefits, including access to our Employee Assistance Plan with mental health and counseling services, discounts on hundreds of retail items through our Benefit Hub, and unlimited opportunities to make an impact in the life of a special needs child.

About the Role

As a Special Needs Child Care Specialist, you will have the opportunity to work one-on-one with children with autism, implementing individualized behavior intervention plans under the guidance of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). You will use evidence-based techniques to teach communication, social, and daily living skills while reducing interfering behaviors.

You will need to be patient, compassionate, and able to work well in a team environment. We provide comprehensive training so that you are equipped and empowered to help each child, even if you don't currently have experience. Children can be unpredictable and potentially confrontational, so this role is not for the weak of spirit, mind, or body.

Part of the joy of working with kids is exercise - our clients move, so you need to be comfortable standing, walking, sitting, grasping, reaching, bending, kneeling, crouching, squatting, lifting, and at times carrying children or objects that weigh up to 50 pounds.

Requirements and Qualifications
  • Passionate about helping children with autism.
  • Patient, compassionate, and able to work well in a team.
  • 18+ years of age.
  • High school diploma or GED.
  • Ability to obtain a CPR, First Aid Certification and Tuberculosis test (if you haven't had one in the last year).
  • Ability to pass a pre-employment background check.
  • Ability to move in various positions (sit, squat, bend, etc.).
  • Ability to lift and carry up to 50 pounds.
What We Offer
  • A structured career path in the field of Behavioral Analysis.
  • Discounts to hundreds of retail partners via our Benefit Hub.
  • Access to Centria's Employee Assistance Plan with benefits around mental health and counseling.
  • Unlimited opportunities to make an impact in the life of a special needs child.
