NANNY/ COMPANION/ FRIEND FOR OUR 16 Y.O. GIRL WITH SPECIAL NEEDS PLEASE BE RELIABLE AND RESPONSIBLE Looking for a warm, dependable after-school companion for our 16-year-old daughter, who has special needs. She is independent, fully mobile, and verbal, though not conversational. We're hoping to find someone patient, kind, energetic, and responsible who is genuinely interested in building a trusting, long-term relationship with her. The role: spending afternoons with her, playing video games, going with her to classes and activities, and taking her to movies, shows, and other outings. Some occasional evening availability helps too. **Schedule:** - Monday to Friday, 2 to 7 p.m. - School holidays and breaks, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. - Occasional evenings, arranged in advance Given these hours, this position likely isn't a good fit for college students unless they're studying remotely. This is a long-term position with competitive pay, guaranteed hours, paid vacation, and extra pay for major federal holidays. Special-needs experience is a strong plus, but patience, good judgment, reliability, and a caring personality matter most. Fluent English is required. Please apply only if you can commit to consistent weekday afternoon coverage long-term. If interested, send a short note about your background, relevant experience, availability, and why this role interests you. References will be requested.
