During an initial consultation, caregivers will meet with the Board Certified Behaviour Analyst (BCBA) to discuss their goal(s), provide any relevant information about their child, and have the BCBA complete a brief observation of their child.

Caregiver coaching sessions will allow parents to work with the Ignite’s BCBA for up to 3 hours, over the course of four weeks. The goal of caregiver coaching is to support families in developing a goal for their child and to provide 1:1 support in person or via videoconference to meet that goal. Sessions will include a combination of direct caregiver coaching with the caregiver and child, and/or the opportunity for the caregiver to discuss challenges and debrief about recommended strategies.
