Support that fits real family life
A calmer, more consistent home routine starts with the right match.
This service is for families seeking a domestic helper who understands that communication, sensory needs and daily transitions may look different for an autistic or neurodivergent child.
The aim is practical and respectful: helping your household maintain familiar routines while keeping roles, expectations and professional boundaries clear.

Frequently asked questions
What families usually ask first
Still unsure whether this is the right route? Send us a short message and we will help you identify the most appropriate next step.
Ask a different questionIs the helper a therapist or special-needs professional?
No. The helper provides domestic and household support. Training improves autism awareness and practical support skills, but does not qualify a helper to provide therapy, medical care or professional developmental services.
Who employs and places the helper?
WorkWave manages recruitment, matching, employment arrangements, immigration-related processes, fees and placement terms. My Autism Hub coordinates the initial enquiry.
What does the autism-focused training cover?
It covers autism and neurodiversity foundations, communication differences, sensory awareness, visual routines, transitions, dignity, safety and clear role boundaries.
Can the helper follow our therapist's recommendations?
A helper may support established home routines or written recommendations when these are clearly explained by the family or qualified professional and remain within the helper's role.
How do we begin?
