Hi! I'm Tyler, a registered behavioral therapist with 5+ years of experience specializing in special needs children, typically moderate/severe. With degrees from UCLA in Education and SDSU in Autism Specialization, I'm well-equipped to handle any challenge. I prioritize creating environments where a child's individualism can shine, emphasizing trust, safety, and comfort. I thrive on engaging kids with high energy levels, ensuring they stay active throughout the day. I also integrate fun activities with learning to keep them entertained and intellectually stimulated. My teaching background enables me to assist with academics, preparing them for the next grade or summer learning. Having spent a year teaching English language learners in Spain, I am somewhat fluent in Spanish. Patience and understanding are my strengths, always accompanied by a good laugh. I'm here to make your life easier while ensuring your child has a fun time. Let's connect and discuss how I can support your family!

I don't know if I can write a glowing-enough recommendation for Tyler! She is amazing. My son has autism and due to his sometimes significant behaviors and unpredictability around new people, it can be extremely difficult to find someone to watch over him on school breaks while I'm at work. Tyler was so incredibly qualified with special needs, particularly autism, and was not at all intimidated by the challenges of how moderate or severe behaviors might be. She was wonderful with my daughter as well, who likes to get her own special attention from sitters. She was responsive, timely, and reliable. And on top of ALL that, on more than one occasion while she was sitting for me, she took the time to go above and beyond to help clean and organize my house, which I did not ask or expect her to do but was SO grateful for as a single mom! I look forward to hiring her again when I need care for my kids, and I know she has a very promising career ahead of her in working with special needs children.
