Overview
A little about myself: I am a 6-year-old girl, and I live with my Mummy, Daddy and big sister. I would like to have a PA who will help to support me to access activities of my choice - I love arts and crafts, going on my scooter, slime and playing with my Barbies. I have a learning disability and have been diagnosed with ASD and a PDA profile, I am also being assessed for ADHD. I am a bundle of energy; I am inquisitive and friendly and really enjoy having 1:1 attention from an adult. Due to my additional needs, I can present with challenging behaviour at times when I am dysregulated, I can also run off and therefore I need my PA to always supervise me closely.
