We are looking for someone who can become a consistent part of Kris's afternoon/evening routine. The typical afternoon will look something like:
• Spend time with Kris after he comes home from daycare (parents do pick up)
• Prepare and serve a simple toddler dinner
• Support a calm, positive mealtime routine
• Help Kris gradually become more comfortable with different foods and textures
• Clean up after Kris and his meals
• Play with him, read books, do age-appropriate activities, and spend some time outdoors when appropriate
• Help with bath/bedtime preparation as needed
• Keep Kris's play and eating areas reasonably tidy
Kris is currently a very selective eater and is sensitive to food textures. He currently refuses foods such as eggs, most meat, and vegetables, although he does not have known food allergies. We are looking for someone who is patient and comfortable supporting a toddler with picky eating and texture sensitivity, and can create a positive mealtime environment.
