About the employer

We are looking for a kind, caring, and reliable Personal Assistant to support our son.

He uses an AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) device to communicate, and we are looking for someone who will actively encourage and support him in using it to express himself and engage with the world around him.

The role will involve assisting with personal care, supporting daily routines, and helping to maintain a clean, tidy, and safe environment for him. There may also be occasions where support with meal preparation and shopping is required.

Above all, we are looking for someone who will help our son feel happy, secure, and valued. Building a positive relationship with him, promoting his independence, and ensuring he enjoys his time with you are the most important aspects of this role.

We would love to hear from individuals who are patient, understanding, and enthusiastic about supporting children with additional needs. Experience is welcome, but a caring nature, willingness to learn, and commitment to making a difference are what matter most.
