FEATURED JOB OPENING: Property Caretaker and Caretaker for Sweet, Autistic Young Adult in Gorgeous Northern California Location- Perfect for Empty Nesters! - Santa Cruz, CA

Looking for a loving, kind and patient couple to oversee our house and property as well as to provide care for our super sweet and gentle autistic 22 year old son. Our home has a caretakers apartment attached to it where you would live.

The property is absolutely gorgeous with many fruit producing trees and flowers. We have a hot tub and an indoor pool on site as well. The house is located in a gated community with a 5 minute walk directly onto the beach on Monterrey Bay. We travel back and forth from Ohio to Santa Cruz. We are usually in Santa Cruz about twice a month for long weekends. When we are not there we would need you to help oversee the property and take care of our son. Also additional time off for holidays and when his mother is on property.

Nick is 22 years old and autistic. He is verbal and non-violent. Our main concern with Nick is having someone there to wake him up and get him out of bed mid-morning and make sure he eats meals. When left alone, he likes to lounge in bed most of the day and forgets to eat. He is very independent in that he enjoys watching his favorite tv shows and playing on th computer. He won't need a "playmate" rather someone who can prepare simple meals and get him to eat. His food preferences are very limited including pizza, cheeseburgers, cheese sandwiches and ice cream. In other words, this position will not require gourmet or elaborate cooking! He also likes field trips to hardware stores, the Santa Cruz Bookshop and Taco Bell! You will fall in love with Nick - everyone does.

We will conduct background checks and reference checks so please be advised. Need to fill Position by late 2016/early 2017. Also, Nick does not like dogs so we would prefer no dogs. Open to discussion of dog is smaller and can be limited to certain areas of property. Free accommodations and wage.
