We are seeking a fun and reliable personal assistant to support a 17-year-old male with developmental disabilities. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working with young individuals and is looking for a fulfilling job that allows for flexibility. The personal assistant will be responsible for providing support with activities of daily living, which includes helping the individual get ready for the day, following a daily schedule that includes school and therapy appointments, and engaging in recreational activities. The position requires a reliable car, as transportation will be necessary for food shopping and attending appointments. Additionally, the candidate must be a non-smoker and able to swim, as these are essential requirements for the role. This position is particularly suitable for a remote college student, as there is extensive downtime available to study almost every day.

A background check and medical form are required as part of the hiring process, ensuring the safety and well-being of the individual being assisted.
