My Requirements

We are a professional family working full-time and living in Fulbourn, Cambridge. Our 11 year old son has struggled with school anxiety and is now moving to a small school in the mornings only. He has ADHD and ASD and is kind, caring, funny, bright and great company. His anxiety is not really an issue outside of school and he doesn't have behavioural issues.

We are looking for a few people that can spend time with him in the afternoons. This could take a variety of forms, such as tutoring (he likes learning languages, especially french, but is also interested in science, computing, social science), physical activities that could help his dyspraxia, taking him to social activities or taking him out and helping him develop independence. As ADHD is his predominant symptom, he would work best with people who are outgoings and energetic, including other neurodiverse people. We can both work from home (or will be nearby in an office in the village) so the focus is on enriching activity rather than purely childcare.

We would also like to have occasional babysitting (mainly on weekend evenings 1x per month) and also find a few people that could give extra help ad hoc as one parent sometimes works away, including during school holidays. There is the option of school pick-up once a week or/and housekeeping if someone wanted additional hours.

Times/ Days below are examples for non-holidays - we are just in the process of filling up his week so days are flexible.
