- $20.00 per hour
I’m looking for a reliable and patient babysitter for my toddler on short notice.
My child is on the autism spectrum and was recently diagnosed with hand, foot, and mouth disease, so I need someone who is comfortable caring for a sick child and can provide gentle, attentive care.
This will be in my family home while family members are present, but they will be busy, so I need someone who can take the lead with:
- Feeding meals/snacks
- Diaper changes
- Engaging him with play (not just TV time)
- Keeping him comfortable and monitored while he recovers
Experience with toddlers and/or children with autism is strongly preferred. Patience, attentiveness, and a calm approach are very important.
Please let me know your availability and any relevant experience.
