Crynodeb

****

I am a 7yr old boy and I currently attend school full-time. I have a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and I am awaiting assessment for suspected Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). I live with my mother and four older siblings and I have 2 dogs.

I love technology and enjoy playing Roblox and Minecraft on my devices. I find comfort in familiar routines and environments. I am chatty when able to talk about my interests. I prefer playing on my own and I like to make choices in situations rather than being told exactly what to do. This makes me feel like I have some control and reduces my anxieties.

I have a warm and loving relationship with my mother, and I find it difficult to allow my siblings to spend time with her as I like to always have her attention. Two of my siblings have support needs so it is important that my mother gets to spend equal time with us all. I can be very funny and imaginative and I am physically very fit and healthy so can participate in lots of different activities. I have good verbal communication so I am able to let you know my wants and needs but I am not great at describing my emotions. I do sometimes find it difficult to cope with transitions or unexpected changes, and I may become distressed or overwhelmed.

I need help with doing activities I enjoy, independently of my mother and siblings but there will also be times where I need support to participate in whole family activities. I sometimes require transition support from my school trips as I can find it difficult to leave an activity I am enjoying and my mother needs to be available for my siblings (one of whom has complex health needs).

I respond best to positive praise, clear expectations, and gentle guidance. This role is more than just supervision - it's about creating a lasting, positive relationship with me. It's about helping me grow in confidence, enjoy new experiences, and develop life skills. Your support will not only improve my well-being but also offer reassurance and help me access the world more safely, confidently and joyfully.

**Tasks and Duties  **

I currently require 2 PAs to support me during sessions but hopefully, as we get to know each other and our relationship develops, in the future, I will only need 1 PA during sessions. I need my PAs to collect me from some of my school trips so that I can enjoy participating in the trip with my peers but can then leave the activity safely.

The role of my Personal Assistant (PA) is vital in supporting me to access daily life experiences that my peers enjoy. I need a kind, calm, assertive and consistent adult who can help me with school trips, after-school, weekends and during school holidays.

This includes helping me with transitioning to and from activities, supporting me to play safely, and encouraging me to explore my interests through community activities and structured social opportunities. Your support will also give my mother some much-needed respite.

As my PA, you will work 6 hours per week. These hours can be flexible and the most important thing to me is that you are consistent and reliable.

You'll need to be patient and adaptable, able to use tools like visual timetables, Now and Next boards, and calming strategies to help me regulate my emotions and feel secure. I sometimes resist transitions, so being physically able to support me safely and calmly is important.
