When Zy’aire feels connected and attached to the adults around him, it’s unmistakable. He likes to shower them with attention and affection, sometimes nuzzling his face close, soothed by their familiar smell. It’s his way of showing that he feels comfortable and safe with his caregivers. He’s a kid that likes to bond.

Rhythm and familiarity help Zy’aire feel comfortable and happy. Coming home from school, he looks forward to a daily snack and some juice, and then is content to be in his room. One constant that is usually present? The movie ‘Frozen,’ playing in the background. He enjoys the characters and songs, and the movie just never gets old for him!

In the 7th grade, Zy’aire continues to make progress in school. He has great teacher and caregiver support to attend and assist between his classes. Pictures and tablets help him communicate throughout his day and move from task to task. A family who can continue to advocate for his educational progress and help him access the support that helps him thrive, will be a great fit for this kid.

While Zy’aire doesn’t currently use too many words to speak, the ones he chooses help him communicate clearly and connect with his caregivers. For example, he will say “backpack, coat, shoes” to share that he wants to go to school. He’ll list out his favorite movies when he wants to turn on the tv (but let’s be honest, his vote will probably be for another watch and singalong of Frozen!). And when he’s ready for a snack, he’ll name his favorites. He always likes to share with those around him.

Zy’aire does best with lots of support from many different people in his life! Caregivers who are able and willing to communicate with various services and community settings that help Zy’aire thrive will be in his best interest.

Zy’aire’s caseworker is excited to hear from families who think they could be a good fit for Zy’aire. He’s a kid who deserves the unconditional care that will help him continue to grow and thrive. We hope you will reach out if you feel a connection and think that could be you.
