Our Mission

"Primarily focusing on children diagnosed with Autism, ages 18 months to 8 years, our highly trained staff is committed to providing every child with the most comprehensive educational program, given their unique and individual needs. Our staff, top down, uses a hands-on approach in the design of the program, its implementation and the direct supervision of every child. Using recognized techniques that are the most effective at treating children diagnosed with Autism, Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), our commitment is unwavering."

Agency History

B.E.S.T. Services, Inc. began its operations in San Diego County in 1998. B.E.S.T. Services, Inc. is a woman-owned and primarily woman-operated business with many mothers on staff. The ability for our staff to relate to the families receiving services has driven the company to grow and expand. In 2000 we grew to Orange County; in 2002 the Inland Regional Center; and shortly after to the Coachella Valley area. During 2005 our services expanded further through the Inland Regional Center to include most of San Bernardino and Riverside Counties. B.E.S.T. Services' staff truly feels the positive impact on the families lives to which we provide services, and this motivates us to continue to expand through California in the near future.

Why choose B.E.S.T. Services?

B.E.S.T Services, Inc. is unique for two critical reasons:

First is B.E.S.T.’s absolute commitment to services. Backed by research, Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) can only be truly effective with a consistent delivery of service. It then follows that this approach should also apply to your child’s session schedule.

If a tutor is unable to attend a session due to a last minute cancellation, that tutor will then re-schedule the session for the upcoming Saturday.
If the tutor goes on vacation, another tutor or the case supervisor, if necessary, will work with your child in place of the tutor.
If the tutor or case supervisor is unavailable, another case supervisor will be or can be called on to fill in, or our clinical director, Dr. Wilson, will work directly with your child.

“It is our commitment to not allow your child to go without services,
even for the shortest period of time.”

The second reason B.E.S.T. is unique is the depth of supervision each child and family receives. It is a three tiered approach:

TIER 1
TUTOR: Your child works closely with their tutors on a weekly basis, face-to-face. Our tutors receive 40 hours of initial training with constant reviews and upgrades in training.

TIER 2
CASE SUPERVISOR: Our Case Supervisors oversee your child’s program and supervise the tutors involved with your child. Instead of scheduling times they will be visiting your child, they show up “unscheduled” to get a true look at the program in action; this ensures a higher level of consistency for your child with each tutor they work with. Case Supervisors also work hands on with your child when directly overseeing sessions or when assessing progress.

TIER 3
CLINICAL DIRECTOR: B.E.S.T. has a very unique approach in that our Clinical Director, Dr. Norah Wilson, works hands on with your child. She attends “unscheduled” supervision sessions as well as scheduling sessions to work directly with your child.

With this blanketed approach to your child’s program, we feel that B.E.S.T.’s staff
has had a direct and professional attachment to your child’s program
in such a way that encourages a vested interest as well as
a sincere desire for your child to truly succeed.
