We have two boys (4 and almost 2), and our 4 year old is Autistic and has ADHD, and we are clients of the Regional Center of the East Bay. Nolan is energetic, caring, and very verbal, but does struggle at times with emotional regulation and pragmatic communication. We receive regular OT for him and he attends a great social group where he is practicing these skills. Our younger son, Colin, is a typically devveloping 2 year old :)

We have been fortunate to have weekly respite for 4 hours a week for a regular date night for my husband and I, and have had a caregiver come to our home to play with our boys. However, our caregiver is moving to Sacramento later this month. The timing is flexible.

This job could be weekly, bi-weekly, or even monthly. We would supplement the respite agency's pay so it would come to $30 per hour.
