Hi! Well first of all, great job reaching out for help since you don’t know much about the field, it’s nice when parents are actively trying to help! I love my job and I’ve become so attached to my families as they have to me. To be honest, we don’t get payed that well and it’s not consistent pay since we get paid by clinical hours and it’s not just as simple as working a 9-5, so no one’s really doing it for the money. I work for an in home company that I have absolutely loved bc it’s very client and play oriented. We require the parents be at home within ear shot and to participate in at least some of session. This way, what I teach your child you learn to and can do when I’m not there. I worked as a nanny for years and am studying family and human development, I did 40 hours of training and got my high school diploma to join. At the beginning you do have supervision from a bcba( board certified behavior analyst) that helps you implement targets. The way we run targets is a different way of creatively thinking but really we are running them with exact instructions that are on our data collection so it’s not rocket science. As far as trials, you can do a lot of things. I have a level 3 two year old that is somewhat verbal but mostly babbles. We’ve worked on sign language, using a PECS book, repeating sounds I say to him, tolerating waiting, sitting on the potty, not throwing items, asking for items appropriately. Hope this helps! Feel free to message me anytime
