Just putting out some feelers for November! 🧩
I’m posting anonymously for now because I’m curious if there are any families who might be interested in having someone provide one-on-one companionship and skill-building support for their autistic child/teen/adult loved ones starting in November!😊
I have 9 years experience working with autistic children/young adults and really enjoy helping with things like:
🧩 Companionship & social interaction
🎯 Building independence & life skills
🗣️ Communication practice
🎨 Fun activities & play
🍳 Cooking/household/daily-living skills
💰 Money & the value/management of it
📚 Homework/learning activities
🚶 Getting out into the community
🫂Giving parents a little extra support/respite
I am very patient, non-judgemental & a good problem solver📝I have worked with many different levels on the spectrum, aggression doesn't scare me/all are welcome! I am a safe space💖
I'm especially interested in working with families who want their child to have someone who can hang out with them, build a relationship with them, have fun AND work on practical skills at the same time😁💜
How I work: I provide independent, one-on-one support, with families arranging services and payment directly with me rather than through an agency. Before beginning, we can talk about your loved one’s needs, your goals, scheduling, and what type of arrangement would work best for you & your loved one🫶🏻
I'm just trying to get an idea of how much interest there might be for November before I officially start taking on any more clients!
I understand how important it is to feel confident and comfortable when choosing someone to support your loved one. I’m happy to answer questions, discuss concerns, and take the time to get to know your family before you make any decisions✨
If you think you'd potentially be interested, comment "interested" below & I'll make a list of potential families and contact everyone individually once I have everything ready😊
Please feel free to share this with families who may be looking for additional support! 🌈🧩
Thanks everyone!-No commitment at all I'm just seeing who's interested! 💖😁
