Substitute Enhanced Level Staff

Do you have a passion for making a positive impact in the lives of others? Are you ready to embrace an exciting opportunity where your skills and compassion can truly shine? Look no further! We are on the lookout for a dedicated and enthusiastic part-time Support Staff Professional to provide direct care to a vibrant young woman with autism in the Kennett Square area.

Why This Position Stands Out:

As a Support Staff Professional, you'll have the chance to engage with an inspiring young lady who loves art, sensory activities, creating videos, exploring the digital world, and immersing herself in music. Your role will not only encompass providing care in her home but also accompanying her on thrilling community adventures. Multiple similar substitute positions in the general area are available.

What Sets You Apart:

We believe that experience and passion make all the difference. That's why we're seeking candidates who have a background in behavioral support, with TSS/PCA experience being a definite plus. You'll also need to be well-versed in Positive Behavior Plans, ensuring our approach remains consistent and effective.

Safety, Training, and Empowerment:

While working with our client, we emphasize the significance of building a strong, compassionate team. Job sharing is an option, giving you the chance to collaborate with like-minded individuals who share your passion for making a difference.

The Vital Traits:

To thrive in this role, reliability, punctuality, and responsibility are essential. A valid driver's license, dependable vehicle, full vaccination, and first aid training are necessary to ensure the highest level of care.

Experience that Counts:

At least two years of experience working with individuals who have special needs will be a major advantage. We're looking for someone who can bring energy, creativity, and a proactive approach to the table. A great sense of humor and a calm demeanor will also go a long way in creating a positive and supportive environment.

Benefits You'll Enjoy:

The position offers part-time hours, primarily from 2:30 to 6, Monday through Friday, with occasional weekends and PRN hours available. The starting salary is an attractive $33.00 per hour, reflecting the value we place on your dedication and expertise.
