JOB DESCRIPTION
Personal Assistant
A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF
I am a very lively and bubbly 6 year old boy living in the Penygraig area of Tonypandy with my parents and my siblings.
I have lots of interest and hobbies including watching alphabet songs on the TV and on my IPAD. I also attend Fuse Autism group weekly, Polar Bear Swimming lessons and also enjoy going to role play lane.
I have Autism, Global Development Delay, and sensory processing Disorder and suspected pica. I am Non-verbal but I will communicate through sounds and gestures. I don’t like to be around loud noise and if I am I will be wearing my ear defenders. I do like my own space but sometimes to quiet means that I am up to something as I don’t see any danger around me or to myself, I will need high levels of supervision as I put things in my mouth that shouldn’t go in there. I love to play but again will need supervision as I fall over sometimes and I tend to run off if you don’t hold my hand I will run out onto the road.
I am incontinent and wear nappies so I will need changing if we are out in the community at any time.
