Our 7 year old is in Year 1 and we are looking for the right person to help with school pick ups (Frenchs Forest - 10 minute drive from our home), prepare afternoon snacks, support afternoon routine and and engage with our daughter. Light household duties may be required.
I am a primary school teacher, so we just need help on my work days. Often dad will be working from the home office on the Monday/Tuesday.
Our daughter is Autistic, so we are looking for someone patient, flexible, with a good sense of humour. Pay is negotiable, for those with the right experience.
Potential for more afternoons and occasional weekend babysitting.

Our son is a funny, highly intelligent and warm hearted teenager who experiences daily challenges due to his ASD and ADHD diagnosis. He is highly verbal and often enjoys in depth conversations. He can at times become highly anxious and require support to manage his concerns. He has no physical disabilities. Essentially, our son requires help with daily organisation, meal preparation and outdoor activities. He attends school via correspondence and requires significant support in managing his daily tasks and overall school workload including assessments. He needs assistance and supervision when logging on for exams.
Our son is a fussy eater who is working towards independence when making meals, therefore meal preparation is required as well as teaching our son how to cook his own food. Daily exercise is critical, however he often resists this and so a supportive approach is best here.
Light household cleaning will be required such as cleaning dishes from the day, putting out a load of washing and ensuring our son's room is tidy. At the end of the day, the living area of the home needs to be left tidy.

This is a part time role, however we are looking for someone who would be a great fit and stay with us the long term.
