About Me

A bit about us we are first time parents in our 30s and our boy is age 4 with undiagnosed special needs we suspect a form of autism but yet to be confirmed and he has started school.

We work from home customer support jobs at current and may change in the next month or two our work.as looking into an in office job to change to.

Our boy is interested in songs, alphabets, construction such as Lego, play dough, puzzles, animals, dinasours, play with hot wheels tracks and passing a ball, we watch kids TV and movies, we love hey dugee, batwheels, Masha and the bear, puffin rock to name a few.

He is in pull ups and is used to a stroller when we go out. He has undiagnosed special needs, we are at the beginning of finding who to contact and what help there is for him.

He gets overstimulated at times by noise so we use ear defenders or find a quiet place to calm down with breathing exercises.

He has sensory issues around crowds, noise and food. So he may be ok at one time then get overwhelmed and start spinning or pushing he doesn't mean to but then we again find a spot and calm down breathing or massage feet heels or stomp.

Food is cereal with warm milk, plain pasta with butter, crisps, rice crackers, fruit yogurts, fish fingers, fries or chips, toast and butter, mcdonalds nuggets and chips is ok.

He has epilepsy he is in sort of remission from it at current so he carries midazolam but hasn't had any.

Since diagnosed on 2022 as up to 2024 April he took kepra medication and now he is off it completely just under their radar if he was to have a fit.

We had him start school this year with after-school

But after school has refused him after his second day there on the basis they can't support his special needs and now I need some support to continue working with our employer.and get him looked after while working to earn a living.

The times we are after is on the month of September for now to cover pick ups from Chester park infant school 3:15 to 5:30 pm as we finish work at 5:30pm each day without Wednesday for Monday 22nd in month of September for a week.

As we work from home what would suit us is a child minder to watch him at our home or child minder's home while we work from home and possibly if weather permits to take him to the nearby park for an hour or so.

I may need Wednesday starting October depending on work circumstances.

I look forward to speaking if interested. Let me know if you need further information.
