Are you fun, and full of energy? We're looking for the perfect Personal Assistant to support an adventurous 9-year-old son, who's always smiling and ready for his next outdoor adventure
He's a happy, easy going boy who thrives on play and loves being on the move — whether that's exploring the park, splashing at the beach, riding buses and trains, jumping into soft play, or knocking down pins at bowling. Every day is an opportunity for fun and discovery
Your role? To be his playful companion, while keeping him safe and supported at all times. Experience with SEN children is a big plus, as he sometimes finds it tricky to communicate clearly.
He's a quick runner with a big spirit, so lace up your trainers — you'll need to keep up
If you're patient, playful, and ready to make a real difference, we'd love to hear from you.
