Hello, I'm currently looking for a caring, dependable nanny/caregiver for my 6 year old son. He has Koolen-de Vries Syndrome and is nonverbal. It is very important to me that anyone working with him presumes competence and engages with him in an age-appropriate, respectful, and encouraging way. He is a happy, energetic child who enjoys play and interaction. Patience, attentiveness, and plenty of energy are essential. Responsibilities would include caring for him, assisting with homeschooling activities, and helping with light household tasks as needed. Experience with children with special needs is a plus, but the most important qualities are patience, kindness, and a willingness to learn.
