My name is Eliza, I'm an independent parent to an autistic 5 year old named Niklaus. We currently live with my mom in Astoria and have 2 cats,Binx and Kittens. Klaus is in need of medium support, he's semi verbal and communicates via echolalia.He's kind and sweet,once he warms up to you he'll be like a duckling- following you everywhere lol
Sitter will need to meet with the school bus and help assist him with after school snack and prepare dinner. My mom usually is home before the bus but works a second job remotely. He's beginning kindergarten so he'll possibly need help with. if taken to the park he'll need redirection and he may tantrum if it's time to leave and he's not ready to go yet. usually a trip to the grocery store for a treat helps with that redirection.
Schedule is flexible, my mother may dismiss you early, so don't feel bad if that happens.
