About Tallulah
Tallulah is a 5‑year‑old girl with Autism, Global Developmental Delay and Sensory Processing Disorder. She is non‑verbal but can make sounds and sometimes say odd words. She carries EpiPens, so awareness of allergies and confidence in handling medical needs is important.
She loves:
* Singing and dancing
* Trampolining
* Swimming
* Inflatapark/Inflataspace trips
* Fun, engaging sensory activities
She is very affectionate and seeks cuddles, kisses and hugs, so I am looking for someone who is naturally warm, nurturing and comfortable with this level of affection.
About the Role
£14.00 per hour.
Initially: 6 hours per week (to allow mum to build trust and get to know you).
Ongoing:
* 1 Saturday morning per month (4 hours)
* 1 overnight per month (Saturday) at our house – starting Saturday evening and finishing at 2 pm Sunday
* Includes taking Tallulah to a fun activity (e.g. trampoline park)
The Ideal Candidate Will Be
* Female
* Reliable and committed
* Genuinely caring and passionate about working with children
* Experienced with additional needs (essential)
* Patient, nurturing and affectionate
* Confident supporting a child with sensory needs and communication differences
* Comfortable managing EpiPens (training can be provided if needed)
* Comfortable changing her nappies
* Have a driving licence and car with appropriate insurance as she isn’t great on public transport and there is a danger near busy roads as she tends to elope
There is a genuine occupational requirement for the holder of this post to be male/female in accordance with the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 and Equality Act 2010 schedule 9 paragraphs 1–4.
At the time of starting their employment, the successful candidate must have permission to work in the U.K.
