About the role
Our 8-year-old son is easy going, fun loving and always happy. We are looking for a calm but fun PA to take him out and about, playing alongside him whilst ensuring his safety at all times. Our son is very active and loves being outside; his favourite activities are going to the park and the beach, going on public transport, swimming, soft play and more recently bowling. Someone who has experience of working with SEN children would be ideal, as his ability to communicate is not always clear. He can run off, so you will need to don your trainers and be prepared!
