Hours: Starting at 10 hours per week (with additional hours during school holidays)
Rate: £17.50 per hour (Self-Employed)

Happy Nest Nanny and Maternity Agency are delighted to assist a warm and welcoming family based in Southend-on-Sea in their search for a dedicated, understanding, and proactive Personal Assistant to support a 17-year-old with autism and learning disabilities.

The individual is an active and vibrant teenager with a love for football, golf, the gym, and trips to the cinema. While capable and enthusiastic about his hobbies, he can sometimes struggle to self-regulate, so we are looking for someone who brings calm, confidence, and consistency to their approach.

This role will involve:

* School runs and accompanying the young person to extracurricular activities (football, gym, etc.)

* Offering companionship and support during activities

* Encouraging independence while providing assistance where necessary

* Supporting self-regulation when challenges arise

* Performing light household duties including laundry, ironing, and running errands

* Managing the summer holiday schedule, helping with additional hours during this period

* Sunday working will be required, as well as potential for additional hours on weekdays during the school holidays to accommodate the increased schedule

* Being comfortable around family pets, as the family has a dog

The ideal candidate will:

* Have at least 5 years experience in a similar role, specifically supporting young people with autism and learning disabilities

* Be calm, compassionate, and patient, with the ability to stay composed and clear-headed in challenging situations

* Possess strong organisational skills, and be able to handle household duties with efficiency

* Have a valid drivers license and access to their own car (essential for school runs and outings)

* Hold an Enhanced DBS check, and provide checkable references

* Be self-employed

This is a part-time role, starting at 10 hours per week, with potential for additional hours during the school holidays and Sunday working. The pay rate is £17.50 per hour.

If you are interested in this fulfilling and rewarding opportunity, we would love to hear from you.
