Overview

A loving family in Middleburg, VA is seeking a full-time educator to help with the homeschooling of their 8 year old autistic son.  The educator needs to have a background in autism, whether in special education, developmental therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, ABA therapy, or a related field.  This would be a live-out position with a dedicated school space in downtown Middleburg.  The hope is to provide a robust outdoor-focused instructional system that allows him to identify opportunities, hobbies, and skills that allow his confidence to grow and have fun along the way!  The child is happy, energetic and social. There are no challenging behaviors like aggression, self-injury or elopement.  The schedule would be Monday through Friday roughly 8am-3pm.  The family is open to relocating and ready to hire immediately.
