Needed Special Needs Caregiver In Alexandria

About the job

Looking for summer caregiver for a 8-year-old with high functioning autism. He is extremely intelligent, with a love for science, building/construction, space, and engineering. He's a curious and funny boy who loves reading (novels about dragons are current favorite!). We would need full time help for some days in June and half day (12:30-5:00) help in July. He is generally very independent, and often reads or plays on his own. Ideal candidate would have experience with kids with ADHD/ASD and related behaviors (such as inflexibility or impulsivity), or an interest in related subject areas (such as a nursing, social work, or psychology student or special education teacher).
