Have you looked at examples offered here:

https://dequeuniversity.com/library/

And also the webaim site has great information:
https://webaim.org/techniques/forms/

Seems like some surveys I've taken recently had something similar to what you're looking for but I don't have one handy at the moment.

Hi!
In a form, I have a choice of 2 checkboxes. The second one is labeled "Other, specify," and there is a text box next to it. I'm having trouble finding an example online to make this accessible. Is there a way to indicate that the text box is related to the checkbox? Thank you.
