Hello. Starting this summer, my wife and I are looking for someone to babysit for us. The three kids have different schedules so each week could look a little different. Our two girls are fun. We have them every other week. We also have a teenage boy with special needs. He goes to school in the summer, but has many days off. He is a really sweet kid. He is non-verbal, but loves to laugh. He is small for his age and he is not at all aggressive. We have had a lot of success with caregivers from the local colleges, and this could be great experience for someone who may be interested in working with people with disabilities. We will train and answer any questions that you may have. Thanks for your consideration. Most weeks will be 40 hours.
