Job Description

Looking for a Fun, On-The-Go Buddy in Westerville, OH
A caring family is seeking a kind, patient, and engaging support person for their 9-year-old autistic son. He is well-behaved, friendly, and a joy to be around. We’re hoping to find someone who can be a positive “buddy”, and supporting him as he builds social skills, confidence, and meaningful connections in the community. Go have fun everyday exploring, going to Cosi, getting food, or just hanging out!

Schedule:
Weekday evenings: 4:00–7:30 PM

What the Role Looks Like:

  • Engaging him in community outings and activities
  • Supporting social interaction and communication in natural settings
  • Taking him swimming and participating in fun, age-appropriate activities
  • Encouraging independence through play and shared experiences
  • Providing calm, consistent, and respectful support

About Him:

  • Friendly, gentle, and cooperative
  • Enjoys reading, sensory toys, and hands-on activities
  • Thrives with positive encouragement and clear routines

Who We’re Looking For:

  • Someone warm, reliable, and patient
  • Experience with children and/or autism is a plus (but not required for the right person)
  • Comfortable being active and engaging in the community
  • A genuine interest in building a trusting, supportive relationship

What We Provide

  • Competitive pay
  • Legal employment
  • Support from a manager and wider childcare team
  • Opportunities to grow professionally and apply early-childhood or education-related learning
  • Access to contests, social gatherings, and community events for connection and support


We hope you have:

  • 2 + years of experience caring for children (paid or unpaid) references
  • Consistent, dependable communication
  • Reliable transportation and a working cell phone
  • A warm, encouraging presence to greet this loving family each day

Our Culture Makes a Difference:

We invest in our employees, starting with on-the-job training, and continuing mentoring and coaching. We provide opportunities for our engaged and happy employees to grow with us.

About Jovie

We're Jovie. Smart, capable, human, full of joy. Ready to help build stronger families with our vetted and savvy team of professional nannies and babysitters. 

For modern parents, finding the proper childcare can feel like another task on a never-ending to-do list. That's why Jovie takes the tough stuff off their plate: screening, hiring, training, and payroll. So they can skip to the best part— meeting a nanny or sitter who feels like part of the family.

Jovie's childcare services extend beyond the home as the nation's leading event care provider for corporate functions, weddings, and professional sports teams. Our experienced caregivers are equipped to be ready for anything, including stepping in for center care staffing and employer-subsidized back-up childcare. We've always done this work before as College Nannies and Sitters, and we continue it now as Jovie. 

Over the last 20+ years, we've served over 350,000 families in 150 territories across the U.S. In 2016, we became part of the Bright Horizons Family of Childcare Solutions as a wholly-owned subsidiary.
