Summary
We are looking for a very friendly, patient, professional individual who has full knowledge, experience and understanding of Autism, to assist in looking after my son. The PA would also need to hold a valid driving licence and have access to a vehicle. We would also prefer the PA to be first aid trained too, if possible.
We have funding for **6 hours per week d** uring School term (Saturdays will be required), and 8 hours per week during School Holidays.
**The rate of pay is £15.00 per hour.**
We live in Staplehurst, Kent.
Assistance desired predominantly during weekends. The activities my son enjoys are both outdoor and indoor activities, as he is a Proprioceptive and Vestibular Sensory Input seeker and loves being in parks, swimming, indoor trampoline or playcentres or at his gymnastics club Pegasus, Maidstone on Saturdays. He is a very happy, energetic and pleasant child to work with.
He also enjoys playing on his Ipad and snacking on his favourite treats following a trip to a shop. He loves and seeks routine.
My son has a basic level of communication he can tell carers what his basic needs and wants are often by using 4 or 5 words in a sentence. He can also communicate using visual aids.
* He is able to show whether he is happy, excited or sad. His body language is also very telling.
* He has some safety awareness and sense of danger but will require careful supervision, in particular around busy roads or car parks.
* He shows when he is upset by communicating verbally but will also show his emotions through body language.
* My son is very sociable loves being around other children, but may need support to take turns or when waiting.
* He needs very little or no help with all his daily self-care routine.
**If you have any other questions or would like to meet us, please do get in contact with us.**
