Hello, I am an energetic, outgoing, friendly, and compassionate person who enjoys working with toddlers, children, teens, and young adults. I have worked as an in-home respite worker for individuals with Autism and other special needs. I have multiple years of experience working as a special education teacher assistant and behavior technician. I have worked with children who display challenging behaviors and have training & experience in applied behavior analysis and crisis intervention. I graduated from Russell Sage College with a master's in Applied Behavioral Analysis & Autism. I am willing to help with virtual learning if necessary. I am on track to becoming a Board Certified Behavior Analysis. Feel free to contact me if you have any other questions.

    Lauren is a compassionate, gentle, and nurturing caretaker. Few people can rival her big heart and understanding for people of all abilities. Lauren works hard to know the intricacies of the individuals she works with, and will make an excellent addition to any family.
