This is a heartwarming opportunity for compassionate providers who love making a difference! We work with members throughout Wisconsin to find providers that fit each of their needs. Our goal is to help individuals be in more control of their own supports and to have a say in who is assisting them. This helps them to stay in their own homes as long as possible.

We’re looking for an engaging, reliable, and compassionate Respite Provider to support a bright and energetic child who loves to learn, create, and explore! This position starts with working alongside Mom in the home to build a positive relationship and will grow into independent respite time, where Mom can take breaks out of the home.
 
Location: Chippewa Falls - Care to take place within child's home
Schedule: Flexible — schedule to be confirmed with parent in advance
  • Preferred availability for weekends and late afternoons/evenings
Compensation: $14.13/Hr
 
Responsibilities
  • Engage the child in fun, screen-free activities such as crafts, reading, homework help, and creative projects/activities.
  • Be active and hands-on — think soccer, Pokémon GO adventures, rock collecting, tinkering, and imaginative play
  • Support the child’s independence and emotional regulation in a calm, structured way.
  • Work with mom closely to learn child's routine and regulation styles, developing into independent care slowly, giving mom valuable respite time

About the Child
  • Loves spinning flags, soccer, tinkering, building things, Pokémon, Lucas the Spider, Bluey, and Spider-Man
  • May need gentle support or redirection during transitions or when preferred activities end
  • Can sometimes wander off when distracted, so awareness and safety attentiveness are vital

What We’re Looking For
  • High-energy, fun, and patient
  • Active and outdoorsy, enjoys playing and moving around
  • Calm under pressure and compassionate in all interactions
  • Pet friendly

Qualifications:
  • Driver’s license, reliable vehicle, and auto insurance required
  • Must be able to pass a caregiver/criminal background check
  • Experience working with children with unique needs
  • Comfort with giving gentle hygiene reminders
  • Patient, fun, and loving attitude toward children

Interested?
If you’re dependable, compassionate, and love creating fun, positive experiences for kids, we’d love to hear from you!
