A caring and supportive personal assistant is required for a happy, lively and energetic 8-year-old girl living in the Liskeard area.
She has autism and would like someone who she can build up a positive relationship with and provide her with 1:1 support. This would include some personal care on occasion.
She would like someone to support her with her communication and social skills out in the community.
Her interests are swimming, trampolining and visiting play parks.
Your support will enable her to explore the local area, enjoy more social opportunities, and establish an engaging routine, particularly during weekends and school holidays.
This is a rewarding opportunity to help a young person grow and achieve greater independence while making a positive impact on their life.
The role is part-time, with support required mostly at the weekends. Additional hours will be available during school holidays. 3 hours per week are available, although this is flexible.
The hourly rate is £12.60 (subject to negotiation).
Experience supporting young people on the autism spectrum would be a distinct advantage. A full driving licence and access to a vehicle are essential.
The successful applicant will be employed under a private arrangement with the family, and not be employed or carry out work for Cornwall Council.
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. All offers of employment will be subject to the successful candidate undertaking an enhanced DBS check, the administration process will be undertaken by Cornwall Council.
