Summary

I am a young boy living in Waunarlwydd. I have autism and global development delay. I also have an overactive bowel syndrome. I am very bubbly and active. I love watching Tv, bouncing on the bed, music, sensory lights and playing or watching my tablet. I am still in nappies so will need a PA who is happy to change me standing up as I can’t lay still. I am very fast and will need constant supervision. When we go out, I use a harness as I run very fast and do not have a sense for danger. I also enjoy a cuddle and to chill out. I am looking for a PA to take me out and burn off some of my energy.

I would need a male PA.
