There are many home tutoring programs where a consultant (often someone with a Master’s degree or more and experience working with children with autism) will help supervise a home tutoring program, and help train the individual tutors that work directly with the child. If you do not have experience working with children with autism, finding this sort of arrangement would probably be a good option. Or, if you get this job, the parents may provide training and resources to you if they do not have a consultant.
About the pay, it is really up to the family what is in their budget I would guess, but if they ask you, I would think you could ask for maybe $10 per hour. This is common in my area; but the area where you live may be different. Once you gain more experience and knowledge about autism, you will probably be able to charge a little bit more.
It is important to be informed about autism if you will be working with children with autism (which is so much fun, and very rewarding). Here are some of my favorite resources that I hope can help you.

If you have no experience, you really should not take the job. Autism is a very complicated disorder and the child deserves someone who thoroughly understands Autism. If you are “babysitting” that could be different. But a “tutor” is to teach. Autistic minds are brilliant, but hard for normal people to understand. Please encourage the parents to find someone who has experience. (I’m sure you mean well, but just find a “normal” child to tutor.)
way to much
