Summary

Standard hourly rate: £13.85
Location: Dorking
Hours: 4hrs Saturdays (49 weeks/year), 10hrs in school holidays (13 weeks/year)

We’re seeking a warm, upbeat PA to support our 8-year-old daughter, Skyla. She is autistic, has ADHD and PDA, so experience with these would be helpful. Skyla is friendly, bubbly and loves being out and about, choosing activities herself.

You’ll support Skyla with:
• Fun community outings (swimming, soft play, cinema, walks, horse-related activities, museums, colouring, baking)
• Providing respite for parents
• Light support such as preparing snacks and drinks
• Encouraging independence — no personal care, but checking she’s dried properly after swimming

We’re looking for someone who:
• Is energetic, positive, and child-focused
• Enjoys being active and planning fun days out
• Has experience with autism/ADHD/PDA (desirable)
• Has a valid DBS check (we can arrange this)

This role is much more “take Skyla out and have fun” than staying indoors — perfect for someone who loves engaging, playful support.
