Healthcare worker| Single Mama
I have a 5-year-old son who gets along really well with others. He is on the spectrum but has really great social skills! We are seeking backup care for school closures, minor illness (i.e. runny nose or stomachache that prevent him from attending school), and on days that he is sent home from pre-k for disruptive behavior.
**Depending on the situation, hours could range between 7:00am to 5:30pm M-F as I float to different clinics in Northern Colorado
The ideal candidate must have at least 3 yrs of experience and a reliable vehicle. An extra car-seat can be provided.
Thanks for looking, we're really excited to meet you! :)

The shifts consist of picking her up at school at 4 pm on school days and picking her up from therapies at noon on off-school days and then keeping her safe and happy at home until the parents come home.
We are flexible with the varying schedules of our care staff.
She is very easy to care for, toilet-trained, and able to communicate. She keeps herself busy watching her ipads.
Her care is funded by a state program that Colorado Family Caregivers (CFC) administers, so the care staff would need to become CFC’s employee. CFC pays $23 per hour. The onboarding, background check, CPR class (candidate pays), and timesheet training are all online.
Once you are CFC’s employee, if you need more hours than we can provide, I can announce your availability to the other families in my local special needs parenting groups, if you choose.
We live in South Fort Collins. My number is [phone number hidden].
Thank you.
