Summary

Please note this is not a Swansea city council job. You will be working with a private client who received direct payments.

A little about myself:

I am a young boy living in Swansea. I have Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Down Syndrome, and Learning Difficulties (LD). I am a happy-go-lucky boy. I am very friendly and no trouble, but I do get frustrated sometimes as I struggle to communicate.

I enjoy playing with my tablet and watching YouTube videos. I also enjoy playing with my toys. Once I have had enough, I will stop. I can get frustrated and throw my toys about, but this will mean that I need personal care.

I do not like dogs as they can trigger me. I will need to avoid noisy places. Some things will depend on my mood. I am looking for a PA to get to know me and help me have some fun.

Driver required to take me out.

Male / female preferred.

• 10 hours per week during school term (15 miles);

Be confident, mature and have patience;

Be dependable and arrive on time;

Be friendly with an easy-going manner;

Be adaptable and flexible;

Be supportive but not take over;
