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.

CARE FOR TWO SWEET BOYS – Chippewa Falls, WI

We are looking for two caring, patient, and dependable respite providers to support and spend quality time with two wonderful boys. This role takes place in your home, providing a fun and structured environment where both boys can relax, play, and be themselves while their parents take a well-deserved break.

The ideal caregivers are calm, creative, and experienced with children who have unique behavioral or sensory needs. These boys thrive with adults who can stay positive, set clear boundaries, and redirect challenging moments with kindness and understanding.

SHIFTS

• 4 hours per week

• Mondays: 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM

• Fridays: 5:00 PM – 7:30 PM

• Consistent schedule with flexibility as needed

WAGE

• Both boys together: $17.70 per hour

ABOUT THE BOYS

Both boys are bright, curious, and full of personality! They love hands-on fun, learning new things, and creative playtime. They do best in an environment that’s calm, consistent, and filled with positive energy.

Here’s a little about what makes them special:

• They love to craft, build, and create — anything from simple art projects to imaginative play setups.

• They’re curious learners, especially drawn to math, learning new skills, and exploring new games or activities.

• Enjoy pretend play — building stories, playing characters, and using imagination.

• One loves video games and doing his own thing independently, while the other enjoys being active and engaging with his caregiver.

• Both respond well to structure, encouragement, and praise — complimenting their efforts goes a long way!

• Familiarity or experience with autism or behavioral support is preferred.

• At times, they may show signs of frustration or aggression (such as pinching, biting, scratching, or hair pulling). Caregivers who can stay calm and use gentle de-escalation techniques will help them feel safe and supported.

Overall, they are sweet, loving boys who thrive with caregivers who are patient, playful, and consistent.

DUTIES

• Provide a safe, structured, and nurturing environment in your home

• Engage the boys in fun activities like crafts, games, pretend play, or short walks

• Encourage learning through math games, creativity, and exploration

• Offer gentle direction and redirection during challenging moments

• Communicate clearly and calmly to help them manage emotions

• Encourage independence while maintaining supervision and safety

• Create a space where they can be themselves and feel understood

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• Someone compassionate, dependable, and patient

• Comfortable supporting children with autism or behavioral differences

• Positive, upbeat, and good at staying calm under pressure

• Creative and flexible — able to adapt activities based on the boys’ interests and energy

• Someone who truly enjoys making a difference in children’s lives

REQUIREMENTS

• Valid Driver’s License

• Reliable Transportation

• Must pass a background check
