Caregiver (DSP) for Child with Special Needs – Colonie, NY [PG]
We’re seeking a paid ComHab worker (Direct Service Provider) for our son, 8. He’s on the autism spectrum, is non-verbal, and requires 1:1 supervision. He’s a sweet, gentle boy, but does require prompting toward appropriate behaviors and away from actions/objects that are unsafe. We're looking for staff who can supervise him at home as well as bring him out into the community, help him engage in activities, and develop life skills.
This is a 1-on-1 position starting at $22/hr.
If you work in the care field—daycare, senior care—this is a great chance to work in a less-hectic environment with a single person and really make a difference in their lives.

-Showing care, compassion, and encouragement to a teen with special needs.
-Supervision in the home and out in the community.
-Transportation to activities, special events, and appointments (mileage reimbursable).
