Honestly, the only way you're going to know if tutoring autistic children is something you want to do is by actually experiencing it. Is there anyway that you can still have your jobs while doing the training? If you don't like the training, then you can just go back to your two jobs without a problem. In other words, you should try to find a way to "dip your toe in" for a new career experience and not go all the way in until you've experienced it.
BTW, you are doing a very smart thing by questioning your career decisions now rather than taking a giant leap without looking back. I'm currently thinking of changing careers (I'm a PhD student but I'm thinking of leaving academia), and I definitely wish I had thought more critically about my job options before going to grad school.
