Description
About the Employer
I am the employer and mother to my son. He lives at home with his father, 2 siblings and myself. He has a diagnosis of Autism, associated learning difficulties and hyper mobility.
He has limited speech but is able to say words to guide what he wants or likes, but is unable to use full sentences.
He requires close supervision at all times, as he can wonder off and is extremely vulnerable. He is unable to identify risks to himself or road awareness. He does not like loud noises or crowded places, and wears ear defenders to support. We are seeking a PA to provide social support and engage him in activities within the local community. He is an energetic boy who loves the outdoors and enjoys most activities associated to his age
