Hourly babysitter for a 12-year-old boy

Time replacement sought for a boy aged 12 in Skanderborg Municipality

Are you interested in autism and ADHD, and would you like to make a difference for a child through presence, good experiences and a safe relationship?

We are looking for a part-time replacement, 3 hours per week, for a sweet and approachable 12-year-old boy who is entering his teenage years. He needs an adult who has time to get to know him, share his interests and give him good moments with room for coziness and laughter.

The boy loves gaming, both alone and with his friends; he currently mainly plays Minecraft. He also enjoys board games, walks and trips to Aarhus, where he likes to look in shops and play Pokemon Go. He takes care of his appearance and, like other children aged 12-13, wants to fit in and be part of the community.

He has autism and ADHD, which means that social relationships can require a lot of energy, and that he becomes mentally tired quickly. Your most important task is to build a safe and trust-based relationship and create good experiences based on the boy's interests and needs.

You do not need to have extensive experience with autism and ADHD, but it is an advantage if you are interested in neurodiversity, human relationships and children's well-being.

The job gives you the opportunity to gain concrete insight into how autism and ADHD can affect a child's daily life, social relationships and energy. You will gain experience in building a relationship with a child who needs extra support and sharing joyful moments.

The replacement is primarily in the afternoon/evening hours and on weekends, by agreement.

The replacement can take place both inside and outside the home. It is an advantage if you have a driver's license.

The boy lives in southern Aarhus with his family; younger brother (with autism/ADHD), older sister, mother and father.

We hope to find an adult who wants to be a positive part of the family's daily life.
