[quote=Anonymous]Agree with hiring the BCBA directly. You will want to interview them, ask for a resume, ask about experience, ask specifically about experience in that birth-5 range, ask about experience handling problem behaviors similar to your child, ask about assessments, ask hypothetical questions, ask if they plan to move anytime soon, and overall just make sure you think they’d be a good fit for your situation and child.

Observe them interacting with your child at home for a bit just playing and see what happens and also allow them to observe the child in the classroom before proceeding. You can have the best BCBA and it still might not be a good fit, sometimes the BCBA will acknowledge that themselves and not accept the case and sometimes the parent makes that call. Either way is fine during those first couple meetings, it’s best to find a situation all are comfortable with.

Also be very up front and honest about your child and expectations at school, problem behaviors, etc. This will help ensure the best fit for your child.
