About The Position

Your heart. Their growth. Make a real difference by supporting individuals with disabilities Position: Caregiver -541 R Starting Wage: $24.00/Hour Schedule: Monday - Thursday, 4pm to 7:30 pm Location: Albany Or. 🌻 Client Bio: "I'm a very smiley, adorable, and playful kid who loves connecting with people who enjoy being silly, patient, and engaged. I'm happiest when someone gets down on my level, pays close attention, and is willing to play and interact with me throughout the day. I love toys like army men and Magnatiles, and spending time with my family means the world to me. Communication can be a challenge for me—I use words, signs, gestures, and lots of expressive body language. Sometimes it's hard for others to understand me right away, so I do best with someone who repeats things calmly, gives me extra time to process, and helps me express what I need. I'm learning new skills every day. I can help with some parts of dressing, eating, and daily routines, but I still need support, reminders, and step-by-step guidance. I have a lot of energy, and sometimes my emotions can get big, so I need someone who can stay close, help keep me safe, and guide me through calming down. I'm still working on gentle hands and understanding personal space, so supervision and patience are important. I thrive with someone who is attentive, warm, and willing to work with someone young who communicates in many different ways. When I feel understood, supported, and included in play, I connect deeply and grow even brighter." 🌻 Why Join Us? We go beyond care.
