About the Role

We are seeking an experienced, compassionate, and highly capable full-time caregiver to provide one-on-one support for our 8-year-old son with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, and learning disabilities in reading, writing and math. Our child attends school, therapy appointments, educational programming, and community activities. The caregiver will provide support across these environments as required.

This is a hands-on role for someone who is passionate about supporting neurodiverse children and helping them thrive socially, emotionally, physically, and academically. Our son has significant behavioural, motor, learning, and social challenges and requires consistent support throughout his daily activities and routines. Additionally, our son is a large, heavy build (approx 120 lbs and growing) who requires someone able to safely assist him in moments of physical escalation, as well as gross motor and sports development, such as beginner swimming, biking, and other recreational activities.

For this role we are ideally also seeking a fluent Spanish speaker who can continue to foster the learning and development of Spanish-language education in our son, whose birth family and heritage is Salvadoran. The ideal caregiver will be asked to speak Spanish to our son on a regular and daily basis, and encourage his use of Spanish in response, including correcting grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation.
