Scaffold activities and transitions to be sensory-accessible, adjusting pacing, materials, and environment as needed
Maintain awareness of each student's regulation and movement needs throughout the day, adjusting support accordingly

Naturalistic and Instructional Support

Facilitate learning during living moments, including lunch, play, and transitions, using each student's natural interests to build functional skills

Log meals, rest time, bathroom activity, and daily observations in Brightwheel and/or hard copy as required
Provide daily notes via the shared notes platform so the Director can compile data for daily reports
Take and upload photos to Brightwheel as part of ongoing student documentation
Maintain accurate, confidential records of student interactions and observations

Collaboration and Training

Communicate regularly and openly with staff regarding student progress, observations, and any concerns
May attend meetings with the Director, other specialists, and administration

Experience working with neurodiverse students, particularly autistic students, including students who use non-verbal or alternative communication
Experience in a non-public or independent school setting preferred
High emotional intelligence and the ability to read non-verbal cues, body language, and subtle shifts in student affect and engagement
Understanding of sensory processing and co-regulation strategies
Commitment to the belief that every student has something to say and the right to be heard, understood, and included
Ability to keep up with active learners, move between floor-time play and standing transitions, and lift/transfer students if required (usually up to 40 lbs)
