In this position, you’ll use your skills to create stability, reduce dysregulation, and help a bright, empathetic child thrive at home and in the world. You'll gain long-term consistency, deep family partnership, and the opportunity to watch your work create lasting impact, day by day.

Location: Montrose, Houston, TX 77019

Child

7-year-old boy: A talkative, curious child with a kind heart and deep empathy. He is autistic with additional diagnoses including sensory sensitivities, speech articulation delays, and anxiety with OCD features. He thrives with caregivers who provide structure, warmth, and behavioral insight while helping him navigate emotional ups and downs.

About the Position

This is a full charge role ideal for someone who enjoys guiding one child through daily growth and learning. You’ll lead the child’s routine, support emotional regulation, assist with hygiene, prepare sensory-friendly meals, and drive to therapy and enrichment activities.

The family is seeking a caregiver who understands autism as a developmental difference and views behavior through a nonjudgmental, supportive lens. You’ll bring stability, warmth, and expertise to a family that values your background and trusts your instincts.

Key Responsibilities

  • Create and maintain consistent, structured routines
  • Use behavior-informed strategies to support emotional regulation
  • Guide hygiene and independence goals such as dressing and brushing teeth
  • Prepare simple, sensory-aware meals and snacks
  • Transport the child to therapy, medical visits, and weekly activities
  • Assist with schoolwork and daily routines that promote self-confidence

Ideal Candidate

  • RBT or similar behavioral background strongly preferred
  • At least 4 years of experience supporting autistic children
  • Confident managing meltdowns, transitions, and sensory challenges
  • Emotionally steady, nonjudgmental, and proactive
  • Skilled in preparing meals for selective eaters

Family Environment

This Montrose household is warm, grounded, and open. Mom is a medical professional who values mutual respect, trust, and consistency.

Why This Job Stands Out

This is a chance to apply your behavioral expertise in a stable, high-trust home setting. You’ll have the time, space, and autonomy to build meaningful progress with one remarkable child. If you’re ready to shift from session-based care to something more personal and long-term, this role could be your next chapter.
