How do you know pairing is working in ABA?
Before teaching new skills, therapists focus on building a strong, positive relationship with the child. This process is called pairing, and it sets the stage for successful learning.
Here are 3 signs pairing is happening:
✨ The child is excited to see their therapist
🎲 The therapist joins the child in activities they enjoy
👏 The child begins engaging more during sessions
When therapists take the time to build trust and make sessions fun, it helps create an environment where learning can naturally grow.
At Hidden Talents ABA, strong relationships are always the starting point.
