A welcoming family in Cary, NC 27513 is seeking a confident, patient, and experienced special needs nanny/caregiver to assist a wonderful 16-year-old young man (approx. 170 lbs) living with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and developmental disabilities. He is largely non-verbal (responds to and answers simple questions/requests) and enjoys walks, grocery shopping, video games, arts & crafts, cooking, and playing games.
Due to his size and occasional behavioral challenges, we require a skilled caregiver who has strong experience with autism and feels fully confident supporting him safely and calmly through behaviors.
All candidates will be subject to a background check. This position requires proof of legal authorization to work in the United States. The family is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or any other protected characteristic.
To Apply: Please submit your resume and a brief introduction highlighting your relevant experience supporting teens with autism and behavioral needs.
