We are looking for a warm, patient, and energetic home helper and companion for a 24-year-old young man on the autism spectrum. This role focuses primarily on assisting around the house and managing daily household chores —such as cooking and meal preparation, grocery shopping, laundry, and general house cleaning—while also spending quality time with him as a friendly companion (e.g., going for walks, playing games such as Nintendo Switch, or sharing hobbies). Please note that he can sometimes be illogical, fixate on a single topic, and repeat things, so we are seeking someone who is exceptionally patient, understanding, and easygoing.
