JOB DESCRIPTION

A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF



I’m a 7 year old girl with a diagnosis of Autism, ADHD and OCD tendencies. I live in Abercynon with my mum. I’m non-verbal but learning to communicate by using a book to show what I require, for example food or a drink.

I am hyper-sensory meaning I seek stimulation from jumping off wardrobes or grinding my teeth. Another example is having my hair bobble as tight as possible in my hair.

I need constant supervision and tend to run off, hence the 2:1 support. I enjoy the park, soft-play, swimming.
