Seeking Babysitter for One Child with Special Needs on Weekends

Posted by Sara S. on 5/8/2026

  • 1 child (Elementary)
  • $25.00 - $30.00 per hour

We are seeking a reliable sitter for our 7yo starting May 16, 2026, with some flexibility on the start date and time slots. Our last sitter worked primarily Saturdays from 9-12, for example, as that worked best for her. Occasional weekday hours to give mom a break this Summer. Experience with autistic / ADHD kids is essential, and you must be comfortable with a 60-lb dog.

Our priority is connection and engagement with our kiddo. This person needs to be his best bud. He loves Legos, Minecraft, magna-tiles, the titanic, dinosaurs, and has sensory-seeking behavior, especially tactile and proprioceptive. Activities will often be child-led, as keeping him engaged helps to prevent eloping (running away.)
