My son is a cheeky, sometimes energetic 7-year-old boy who loves Minecraft,
collecting semi-precious stones and gems, digging, trampolining and drawing.
I am looking for a fun yet calm personal assistant to help him access a range of activities and experiences, such as swimming and social groups. Sometimes the support will enable me to have respite, at other times it will involve you being his 1:1 person when we access activities as a family.
My son has Autism and likes routine and sees things in black and white. He also has global developmental delay and struggles to communicate clearly, which can make him frustrated. You will need to show patience, kindness and get to know what makes him tick to manage his needs well.
Duties include:
Eating and drinking assistance
Moving and handling
Other relevant duties as required
Transportation
Companionship
Dressing / undressing
Bathroom assistance
Going on trips out with my son to access social and leisure activities
Accompanying us on trips out with the family, acting as a 1:1 for my son to
access social and leisure activities.
Support with finding activities and things to do locally

Able to both follow instructions and work on own initiative
