Summary
I am an adorable little boy that had a tough start in life and as a result I need some extra help after school and at weekends. I love to play but cannot coordinate my movements to do it on my own. Singing songs and dancing is also great fun.
I love to go out for walks and go through my daily physio exercises. I cannot eat or drink safely now, so I am tube fed and have my milk and medicine through my tummy tube. I sometimes have trouble swallowing and need a little bit of suction. But don’t panic, my lovely community nurse will provide full training.
Experience working with children essential.
Hours of work
I need help from 3:45pm - 6pm (at the earliest) on school days and 5 hours on a Sunday. In school holidays or inset days I’d love to see you more.
