Irem is a lovely 9-year-old girl who lives at home with her parents and sisters. The family are Kurdish and follow the Kurdish Alevi religion. Knowledge of the Turkish language would be advantageous.
Irem has difficulties with the core areas of development associated with autism: social communication, social interaction, and flexible imaginative play. Her receptive and expressive language skills are limited, and she becomes frustrated when misunderstood. At school, she uses PECs and individual words, and has become more verbal recently. She has limited safety awareness and requires high supervision to stay safe. She also needs support with personal care and toileting.
Irem enjoys outdoor activities, especially visiting parks, trampolining, painting, music, and swimming. She loves chocolate and painting, and would like to visit the Tim Lamb Centre or Alan Shearer Centre with her PA.
Her parents seek a PA with experience working with children with additional needs and challenging behaviour.
