Try the The West Midland Autistic Society, they have a school for autistic children based in Coddington, I worked there as an agency worker for over a year, it was kewl. If you wanna go Agency, try Beresford Blake Thomas on 0121 212 2292 and ask for Karen Skelding. They're based all over the UK and very help full. If you do go to Agency working, change over to self employed within them, you get a higher rate of your tax refunded to you. BBT should have a list of companies who do this. Feel Free to contact me if you need anymore info. I've been there and done it and loved it. Good Luck! :0)

Hi there!  Yes, here are a couple of organizations in New Zealand that center around people with Autism and their families.\nThere is, and always will be, discrimination against people with Autism and other disabilities.  That is, unfortunately, just a part of life.  You would think by now that discrimination against disability, age, race, sexuality, et al, would be over, but....\nLuckily, there are individuals and groups that battle, legally, on the side of those with disabilties.  Best of luck!

It might be worth putting a the rough area of the country you are in so that you're not wasting each others time.  (Are you in UK?)  \n\nTry looking local to your area, put adds up in creches/nurseries/free ads papers.  Do you know anyone who has an Au Pair, they might have contacts that can help you.\n\nThere's always google; search for childminders association and national, etc, etc.\n\nThere are quite a few lads and lasses in UK from Finland looking for employment, really nice people, reliable, trustworthy and hardworking.\n\nI think there are a couple of Dutch lasses looking for work around here at the moment, I shall point them towards this question if they are looking for work.\n\nGood Luck!\n\nF76

When we needed to hire ABA therapists for our son, we contacted Monster.com and used a service of theirs (formerly called JobTrak) to solicit student candidates with some ABA training, child development majors, psychology majors, and/or education majors from various colleges and universities near our home.  We hired about 8 ABA therapists over the three years our son was in therapy (at any given time, he had 4-5 therapists working with him per week) and had success using this method.  Also, if you have a weekly PennySaver or similar free publication that is distributed by mail in your area, we had success with that as well.  \n\nI'm happy to say our son has almost totally recovered from autism, and I wish you the best in your search for ABA therapists.

I have a Diagnosis of Aspergers Syndrome and I went to a special school called Hillingdon Manor. It's an Inderpendent special school which was set up by a group of parents looking for a school for their children. It's been going for quite a few years now and they're always looking for staff. I'd suggest contacting them, I don't have their number so either search for it online or if you can't find it e-mail me at: Morpheusy2k4@hotmail.com Good Luck ;-)
