My Requirements

Child’s Name and Age:?Kairo, 2 years old
Additional Needs:?Kairo is a joyful and loving toddler with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder). He is not yet communicating verbally, but he expresses himself through laughter, smiles, and body language. A lot of patience and understanding is important when caring for him.
Personality:?Full of joy and laughter, Kairo enjoys calm, comforting environments and familiar routines. He responds best to gentle interactions and a patient, attentive approach.
Meals and Snacks:
* Favorite snacks: Strawberries and grapes (these will be prepared ahead of time if needed).
* Lunch and dinner will always be handled before a sitter arrives.
* No known allergies.
Bedtime Routine:
* Kairo still has a bottle before bed and sometimes during the night.
* He has trouble sleeping through the night, which is likely related to his additional needs.
* I will do most of the settling down before you arrive, but please be prepared to offer comfort if he wakes.
* A calm, quiet atmosphere helps with his sleep.
Communication and Support:
* Kairo does not speak yet, but he may guide you toward what he wants with gestures or by taking your hand.
* Please be patient and give him time to adjust to your presence.
* He may not engage in typical eye contact or respond to his name consistently.
Other Notes:
* No allergies or medications.
* Please maintain a calm tone and avoid overstimulation (loud noises, sudden changes, etc.).
* If unsure how to respond to a behavior, staying calm and redirecting with a quiet activity or toy often helps.
