A little bit about us
--son, 6 years old, is on the Autism spectrum with suspected ADHD. He is an incredibly affectionate and social boy who thrives on connection. He is highly energetic and sensory-seeking, requiring a caregiver who can provide consistent, loving boundaries and engage in active play.
--R, 4 years old, is a bright and spirited daughter who enjoys imaginative play.
Parental Roles: I am a stay-at-home mom with some ongoing health struggles seeking additional support in the afternoon after school to ensure our children's well-being and development. My husband works as a full time software engineer.
We are looking for an experienced part time nanny with the potential to move to full time work if the fit is right! We need a candidate with experience in autism, as P has level 3 autism, and the main purpose of this job is to assist with our son after school (2 pm) until we wind down for bed (6:00 pm). We would of course want our nanny to also engage with our 4-year-old daughter! But definitely someone who had a heart for significant special needs and a willingness to support autistic children. We need special help with diaper changes, bath time, and dinner preparation/support, as these are the most challenging parts of care. You are a highly energetic and engaging individual who can keep up with our active son and provide stimulating activities for both children.
You will have the opportunity to make a significant and positive impact on the lives of two young children, particularly our son. Our previous nanny was so impacted by her work that she plans to devote her career to pediatric occupational therapy, working with children with ASD/ADHD.
