A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Janae, and I'm a caring, dependable, and patient person who truly enjoys working with children. I currently work as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), where I provide one-on-one support to children with autism. This role has strengthened my skills in communication, patience, behavior management, and creating a safe, positive environment where children can learn and thrive. I love helping children reach their goals while making sure they feel supported, encouraged, and have fun along the way. Whether it's engaging in creative activities, helping with learning, maintaining routines, or simply being a dependable presence, I strive to make a positive impact in every child's day.

A little bit about me

I work very well with kids and have experience taking care of them. I was a babysitter for both my niece and nephew to help my sisters out whenever they needed rest or to work. I’ve been job searching since november and never receive any calls back or even get a response for an interview so hopefully I have some luck here.
