Looking for a reliable, compassionate babysitter for one day to care for my 10-year-old son who is autistic. This is not a typical babysitting job — he is a sweet, bright boy who needs extra patience and understanding. He experiences occasional outbursts and meltdowns, and can be prone to elopement (running off), so it’s important that you’re comfortable and experienced with children on the spectrum, especially those with emotional regulation challenges. You should be:Calm, confident, and nurturing. Able to set gentle but clear boundaries.Physically active enough to ensure his safety if he attempts to elope. Experienced in supporting children through meltdowns with compassion, not punishment
