Can you spare 4 hours on a weekday during term time, and 8 hours during the school holidays, to support Nathan (age 11) in accessing community activities and developing independence?
A Personal Assistant (P.A.) is needed in the LS28 area to support Nathan, who has Autism, social and communication difficulties, sensory processing issues, and severe learning disabilities, as well as hypermobility. The role involves supporting access to local community activities, personal care (toileting, dressing, feeding), and ensuring Nathan's safety as he tends to run off and may exhibit challenging behaviors.
Nathan is a cheerful, verbal boy who enjoys books, music, lights, parks, and walks. He requires close supervision at all times due to safety concerns.
The support hours are 4 per week during term time and 8 during school holidays, mainly on weekdays, but weekends may also be required. Flexibility is preferred, but punctuality and routine are essential.
Experience working with children, especially those with Special Educational Needs (SEN), including understanding behavior, communication, sensory, and physical difficulties, is desirable.
