About the Role:

We are seeking a warm, highly organized, and neurodiversity-affirming companion to support a bright, creative 33-year-old woman living independently with Level 1 Autism.

The Household Manager will help structure the client’s day by mapping out a daily schedule and providing gentle accountability.

  • Assist with complex or overwhelming tasks like phone calls, scheduling, or travel arrangements
  • Provide light household organization support while encouraging the client’s independence
  • Offer steady emotional support and help manage anxiety or overstimulation when it arises
  • Encourage personal growth and help the client maintain a balanced, fulfilling lifestyle
  • Balance compassion and structure—knowing when to gently encourage and when to step back

Requirements:

  • The ideal candidate is experienced in working with neurodivergent adults, particularly individuals with Level 1 Autism.
  • They are exceptionally patient, grounded, and emotionally intuitive, with a strong ability to support executive functioning and ease anxiety.
  • A respectful and kind communicator, they lead with clarity and compassion.
  • Flexibility is a plus, with availability for consistent weekday support preferred.
  • The role is best suited for someone seeking a long-term position and who is committed to building trust over time.
