[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another idea- a special needs trained au pair. If you have the space, that would be very inexpensive on a per-hour basis vs any other help you could hire. [/quote] We did this and it was a disaster - we paid a huge up front fee and then a large monthly fee to the agency. The agency did do a care plan and seemed organized, but the au pair was AWFUL. Zero special needs experience when tons had been claimed. It was like having an incompetent teenager (even though she was late 20s) in the house and she created more work than she helped with. Proceed carefully b/c this agency gets good reviews. I don't trust the reviews at all after our experience[/quote] Ha! That sounds like my first experience with ABA. It was supper expensive, we were on a wait list for 4 months until a spot opened up. Great right? Well, they sent a 20 year old who had just finished an online RBT training and we were her first placement! Yay us! The BCBA would “supervise” via zoom for an hour a couple times a week. She was very nice but super nervous and eager. I felt like I was babysitting HER. [/quote]
