About Ashley
Experience: 10 yrs
I like to believe that I make a positive impact on the children & families I work w/ while concurrently, supporting the diverse needs within my community. As a parent of 2, including a son on the spectrum, I bring 35+ years of experience caring for children of all ages. My philosophy in working w/ children is to provide a safe, fun learning environment using various modes of expression. I believe play is the language children & I support the process over a product. In working w/ autistic children, I have personal and professional experience in working w/ children on the spectrum. I'm familiar w/ creating token boards, social stories & using the reward system. I'm extremely creative and personalize my work for each child. I am infant/child CPR & First Aid certified. I obtained my MA in Early Education & my elementary teaching credential. I currently work for the DJUSD as a substitute paraeducator & as a substitute preschool teacher
Most recent review
Ashley recently began working with our family on an occasional basis and she's been wonderful. We have a 3 and 6 year old, and our oldest is AuDHD (likely also PDA), so it was important for us to find a caregiver that understood the nuances of raising neurodivergent kiddos while also being kind, respectful, and compassionate, especially around challenging behavior. Ashley is all of these things! She brings her own experience as a parent of an ND kiddo, as well as her academic training and years working with young children. She is thoughtful, communicative, engaged, proactive. She brings fun and educational activities for the kids that they've really enjoyed and she finds ways to be supportive around my child's school work and tidying up around the house. She's also very reliable. I highly recommend!
