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 the Swansea area who has Autism and pre-verbal. I am looking for an enthusiastic bubbly person, who is physically fit to keep up with me. I am a very independent, loving, gentle and affectionate little boy. I am at my happiest when I am outdoors, I enjoy going to soft play, parks, walks, trampoline parks and car journeys. I am not very good at recognising dangers, so you will need to keep me safe (road safety etc). I can tell you what I want by guiding your hand, I can use simple Makaton, and I am starting to try and speak. I can use Picture cards to ask for things and can decide between choices. I can independently use the toilet and wash my hands.
