Life-changing care, delivered locally
Join Our Team | Home Care Placement
At Home Care Placement, we believe that life-changing care is best delivered locally by people who genuinely care, show up with integrity, and treat every individual they serve with dignity and compassion. That's the heartbeat of our All Abilities service line, and it's why families across San Diego County trust us with their most vulnerable loved ones.
If you have a heart for serving children, teens, or adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and you want a team that sees you, supports you, and grows with you — you've found your place.
About This Role
As a Special Needs Caregiver on our All Abilities team, you'll provide personalized, non-medical in-home care to individuals with developmental disabilities through California's Self-Determination Program. You'll follow individualized care plans, partner closely with families, and be a consistent, trusted presence in the life of someone who needs you.
This isn't just caregiving. It's community. It's connection. It's meaningful work delivered with excellence, every single shift.
What You'll Do
- Support daily living activities: bathing, grooming, dressing, feeding, and toileting
- Provide respite support so family caregivers can rest and recharge
- Assist with routines, hygiene, homework, and coping strategies
- Accompany clients on community outings and social activities
- Follow behavioral strategies and care plans
- Provide companionship, supervision, and a calm, safe presence
- Assist with light housekeeping and meal preparation
- Maintain accurate shift notes and documentation
Who You Are
You lead with compassion and never cut corners — because integrity isn't just a value here, it's how we show up for every client, every day. You're patient, reliable, and steady under pressure. You understand that safety and wellness aren't checklists — they're commitments.
You might currently be or have experience as:
- DSP (Direct Support Professional)
- School aide or paraprofessional
- ABA therapist or behavioral aide
- Respite provider or personal assistant
- Family caregiver ready to turn experience into a career
Experience supporting individuals with Autism, Down Syndrome, Intellectual Disabilities, Behavioral Disorders, or Sensory Challenges is a strong plus.
