This is a heartwarming opportunity for compassionate providers who love making a difference! We work with members throughout Wisconsin to find providers that fit each of their needs. Our goal is to help individuals be in more control of their own supports and to have a say in who is assisting them. This helps them to stay in their own homes as long as possible.

We are seeking a caring, patient, and reliable Respite Provider to support a young girl in a safe, calm, and nurturing home-based environment.

  • May show defiance during care transitions; patience and consistency are important

SCHEDULE & HOURS:
  • 6 hours per week

COMPENSATION: $14.13 per hour

RESPONSIBILITIES:
  • Play with her and help keep her engaged and occupied
  • Supervise to always ensure safety
  • Provide gentle check-ins while supporting independent play
