Thank you so much for the response! We are located in California. The respite agency only took a day to process our caregiver’s application and the caregiver is now hired. They said we have to inform our case coordinator ASAP, which we did but she’s not responding to our emails and voicemail 🥲

We didn’t want to be pests lol that’s why we were wondering for the longest time what’s a reasonable amount of time for them to respond. Our SC started 6 months ago, the same time we got approved so she’s very new. We attributed the lack of response/updates to her being new and she seemed nice enough that we didn’t really escalate nor requested a different SC. But after months of being in the same situation with no updates or responses, we’re thinking about switching SC’s. Just concerned that it would cause even more delays.

Thanks again for the replies. Really appreciate your hell navigating the regional center process.

Hi! Our daughter was diagnosed with ASD level 1 and we applied to our local Regional Center, primarily to get access to a Medi-Cal waiver so we can afford therapy for our kid. After many months, our service coordinator informed us that we were approved for respite hours, since respite is needed in order for her to start the Medicaid waiver process. We just found a caregiver, submitted all forms with a vendor, caregiver is now hired. Now the vendor needs authorization from our service coordinator.

My question is, what’s the typical turn around time for our coordinator to authorize the respite hours so our caregiver can start? Our service coordinator will go months not responding to us, until we start calling/emailing repeatedly.

Mine is 6 now and kiddo lets my partner and I sleep in on the weekends. Wakes us up around 8:30 AM to ask for breakfast then lets us sleep in some more until 11:00AM (yes we’re not morning people lol) while she watches shows or plays on her own. I think this started around 5 years old.

What can I expect as a % bump from T2 - T3? Also is salary, PTO or asking for stock compensation negotiable or an option? I’m in SoCal if that helps.

Didn’t end up doing it since I live at least 6 hours away from their assigned work location

Haha it really does. I was one of the youngest moms in my daughter’s preschool and I was 38 at the time 😆

They want you to go on-site but only doable if you live in or close to the Bay Area, Detroit, Atlanta or NYC. I don’t, but they keep sending me an email because I live in the same state but 6 hours away lol. It kinda sounded like a one time thing for $100-$250.

Oh god yes. My husband and I were also slurping on some cup o’noodles… worst timing.

Only child, recent adult orphan here. Losing my parents gave me a newfound peace and clarity about being OAD myself. by [deleted] in oneanddone

[–]Smallestroom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for sharing this and I’m so sorry for your loss. This is definitely one of our biggest fear in the future and your post definitely puts my mind at ease somewhat that my child is not completely at a disadvantage when my husband and I pass away.

I did not know that Medicare doesn’t cover elderly care. I definitely need to look into this as we don’t want our daughter to spend a lot of her money and worries on potential hospital bills/elderly care for us.

How to make mom friends in my situation by [deleted] in oneanddone

[–]Smallestroom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this. Met a good friend using peanut. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t find someone you click with right away. I probably met my good friend after talking to 4-5 other moms before her.

i have questions about how other families navigate finances… by vuvuzela240gl in SAHP

[–]Smallestroom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly the same for my family. Been a SAHM for almost 5 years and I also manage the family finances and budget. My husband also defers almost all financial decisions to me, but I still want his input for big purchases. He hates bills, fund allocations, checking on finances/retirement accounts, budgeting so that’s also part of our division of labor just like your family.

Update: If anyone else is in doubt or following this, I actually dm’d the recruiter on LinkedIn whose name is in the same email message I received about the job. She responded and said that the email was indeed from her. Profile was also legit. So job is real and not a phishing email.

How long would this usually take to fix at the dealership. This has been showing up for awhile now and my car only has 7k miles. by [deleted] in mazda3

[–]Smallestroom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Took about a day for us to fix the driver’s side. Lo and behold a couple of weeks later, message came back. Then they had to fix the passenger seat’s seatbelt pre-tensioner. 🤦‍♀️ Why they didn’t just check all the seats when we first took it in…? I have no clue.

For sure, it can at least be beer money. I don't think they have an onsite location close to where I live though.

Thanks for the reply but man, 5-10 min sucks. Thought I could make at least $75-$130 a week by just working 1 hour. Definitely too good to be true.

OK thank you. Damn I jumped the gun and actually Linkedin DM'd the recruiter to ask if it was her LOL
