A little bit about us
Hey there! I need help watching my 3 neurodivergent kiddos. I have a 5 year old daughter, 2 year old son and 1 year old son (turns 1 this week!). I'm biased but I think they are the funnest cutest kids. :)
I'm looking for someone that would be willing to be hired on by an agency.
I also need someone who is super patient with little kids. and willing to take them on walks and to the park lots! My kids love coloring, playing with play-dough and building forts.
The hours vary and I don't have a set schedule yet, we can decide that if we're a good fit!
My husband works remote and is also gone a lot out of the house, so I usually need help with bedtimes for the kids.
I also need help with light house work, light meal prep for kids lunches/snacks and keeping the kids contained while I work from home as well.
If you think we're a good fit i'd love to chat! Thanks!

We are looking for a loving, attentive and fun helper for our family. We have a special needs son who is 7 years old. Our son has Cerebral Palsy with limited abilities in movement such as sitting, walking and standing. Our son is the sweetest boy with a beautiful smile and contagious laugh! He loves to be engaged, loves attention, loves hugs and kisses and needs a special person to be his best friend! We also need help at times with our 10 year old daughter but she is very independent.
Our son is developmentally behind but with a great helper we would love to see him work on his skills and make gains! We would like for the nanny to work on his developmental goals, such as helping him practice communication, practice using his hands to grasp things, practice sitting and walking, practice his self feeding skills, and learn new things.
Our nanny will need to be able to pick our son up and be able to carry him. He does have a wheelchair but still needs picked up, therefore our nanny needs to be able to pick up 50 pounds.
We would love someone that is fun, cheerful, loving, reliable, attentive, patient and who connects well with children. Someone that will truly learn how to engage with our son even though he is non-verbal and interact with him so that he has fun learning new skills. Caring for our son is priority and the most important responsibility our nanny will have.

A little bit about us
We're looking for a reliable, loving nanny to come spend time with our kiddos (Riley, our son, is 4 and Anya, our daughter, is 2) while we work during the day. They love to play outside and are very social. My husband and I both work from home but we have offices separate from the main part of the house.
Our ideal schedule is Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8:30a to 2p. We'd also love occasional weekend coverage when possible.
Our son, Riley, is in school, so he's only here part-time. Most of your time will be spent with our daughter, Anya. He is also eligible for respite through DDD, so if you're certified (fingerprint card), we have extra hours we can provide to you, as well.

Looking for someone to help with the kids during the week. Our schedules are starting to get full between work, organizations we volunteer with and going back to school.
Would like someone that can commit to a long term relationship with the kids and us. Since 1 child is on the spectrum it helps to have consistency with the people he meets and helps with trust.
