My name is Josh, I’m 15 years old, and I’m looking for someone fun, kind and patient to support me at home and out in the community.
I love being busy and going out. Some of my favourite things to do are going to soft play, trampoline parks and the cinema. I really enjoy going out for food, especially kebabs! At home I like colouring in, doing diamond art, watching YouTube and playing on my phone. I love listening to music and singing, and I find ambulances really fascinating. I’m a twin and I really enjoy going to school, which is an important part of my routine.
I have autism and sometimes I can find things tricky. I don’t like loud noises, even though I can make quite a lot of noise myself. There are times when I can become dysregulated, and this can lead to challenging behaviour, so I need someone who can stay calm, patient and understanding, and help me feel settled and safe again. I don’t like wearing a coat, so I will need prompting and encouragement to dress appropriately for the weather.
Your job would be to support me with my daily activities, join in with things I enjoy, help me manage my emotions, encourage my independence and make sure I’m safe and happy. It’s really important that you take time to get to know me and build a positive, trusting relationship with me.
I’m looking for someone who is kind, reliable and calm, who enjoys being active and spending time out in the community.
