I currently work at Nassco shipyard, but I am transitioning over to a better position, as well as soon to be moving to a new apartment in March, and I need a nanny or a sitter to be with my children for at least 2 hours a day until I get off at 7:30 am. I will be working nights but my children father will have our children until he leaves for work at 5:30 am and I'm off at 7:30 am. Heaven is my 5 year old girl. She's special and not fully potty trained, but causes no problems and stays quiet. Isaiah is my 3 year old boy. He's active, and Faith is my 1 year old girl, 17 months who's active as well, just love to eat😊, and play.

My daughter Layla is 11 years old, and she has Autism Spectrum Disorder, she is very independent, so caring for her would just be keeping her company and fixing her food as well as making sure she is safe and has proper supervision. She can communicate when she wants or needs something but is mostly nonverbal. I would just need someone to be here to get her off the school bus at 3pm until I get home from work around 6:30 pm 5 days a week during my training for my new job. I have two cats, they don’t need caring for but it’s a must that you aren’t allergic. The training lasts anywhere from 8-12 weeks, however she is only with me every other week (I share custody with her father) so this would be a part time job. Special needs experience is definitely preferred and reliable transportation in the event of an emergency at school/home etc.

Hello. I’m calling about my wonder sister Andie who is autistic. She’s a really amazing girl.

My girlfriends has a random schedule therefore we will have to discuss further about the dates. Look forward to meeting you! Thanks!
