Summary
A little about myself:
I am a 6-year-old girl, and I live with my Mummy, Daddy and big sister. I would like to have a PA who will help to support me to access activities of my choice - I love arts and crafts, going on my scooter, slime and playing with my Barbies.
I have a learning disability and have been diagnosed with ASD and a PDA profile, I am also being assessed for ADHD. I am a bundle of energy; I am inquisitive and friendly and really enjoy having 1:1 attention from an adult.
Due to my additional needs, I can present with challenging behaviour at times when I am dysregulated, I can also run off and therefore I need my PA to always supervise me closely.
Hours of work:
3 hours per week – term time
5 hours per week – school holidays
PA: Female/Male
Driver: Yes
Rate of pay: £12.75 per hour
Tasks involved.
• Supporting me to access activities of my choice in the local community and initially in my home.
Type of person required:
• Someone with a caring and responsible attitude
• Someone who ensures I am always safe
• Someone who is reliable and punctual
• Someone who is fun and loves to play
• Someone who is willing to undertake any training identified as relating to the post e.g. Manual Handling Course, Basic First Aid
• Someone who is experienced in working with children/young people who have additional needs
Concerning the position:
You will be formally employed by the Direct Payment Client which requires a National Insurance number to be submitted. A trial period will be necessary in the first instance in the form of a six-month probationary period. Salary will be paid monthly with appropriate holiday pay calculated. A DBS will need to be processed prior to any commencement of employment. Costs are met by Swansea council.
