Why families choose this

Never freelance. Never unsupervised.

Managed by a BCBA or RBT

Every LSA reports to a Board Certified Behavior Analyst or Registered Behavior Technician — never freelance or unsupervised.

School or home placement

Whichever setting fits your child and your school's requirements — or both.

Assessment-led matching

We match based on your child's actual needs, not whoever happens to be available first.

Real, ongoing oversight

Progress is reviewed and adjusted over time — never matched and left alone.

Pricing

Two steps, clear pricing.

Frequently asked

Questions families ask.

What does the AED 899 registration fee cover?
It starts your child's search — our clinical team reviews your situation, shortlists vetted LSA candidates, and introduces a matched candidate to your family.
Is the AED 899 refundable?
It's non-refundable once paid, since it covers the clinical time spent on your search and match, whether or not you proceed to placement.
How long does it take to find a match?
It varies by your child's needs and location, but most families hear from us within a couple of weeks of registering.
What happens right after I pay the registration fee?
Our clinical team reaches out to understand your child's needs in more depth, then begins the search — we'll introduce a matched LSA once we have one that's genuinely right, not just available.
Why does the monthly fee range from AED 4,500–14,000/mo?
It depends on your child's specific needs and the profile of the LSA matched to you — hours per week, whether it's school or home-based, and the LSA's qualification level (e.g. RBT vs BCBA-level oversight) all affect the rate. We'll always confirm the exact monthly fee with you before you commit to anything.
Is the AED 4,500–14,000/mo fee an automatic subscription?
No — it's a monthly service fee invoiced once your LSA is matched and placement begins, not an automatic recurring charge.
Can I choose between school and home support?
Yes — tell us your preference when you register, and we'll match accordingly.
What if I'm not happy with the LSA you introduce?
We'll work with you to find a better match — the goal is a placement that actually works for your child, not just filling a slot.
