Occasional Overnight Care for Joshua
Posted by Eric F. on 11/5/2024
- $17.00 per hour
We have only one male child who is now a young adult of 20 that has Autism with significant speech delay. He is easy going and very likeable, but is limited in conversational speech. He can express his needs verbally, but cannot really engage in conversation and is unlikely to live independently. He is attending his final year of "transition" following highschool, which will end when this school year does.
We are looking for occasional evening, occasional all-day, and occasional overnight care to allow his parents the ability to be away from home concurrently at times. This might include taking him to any number of social activities that he regularly attends with other special needs young adults, in addition to taking him out to eat, to the movies, or to other entertainment.
Accommodations provided in a dedicated bedroom in a single-family home located within a gated community in Flower Mound. Female preferred, though not necessarily required.
