Rate of pay £12.00 per hour
I am a young man of primary school age. My mother and I would like to employ a personal assistant to help me to participate in social activities, engage with my peers and to allow my mum to have some time to herself.I am a lively young person who requires a lot of supervision, this is especially important when I am out of the house. Sometimes, I may display challenging behaviour, so it is essential that my PA has experience of dealing with things like this.
Familiarity is important to me; I will need my PA to help me develop routines and activities which are familiar and engaging.I enjoy going swimming, playing on the beach, going to the park, and attending the Sgiliau Play Centre. I would also like to attend after school clubs too.
In the house I love to play video games and listen to music. I also enjoy being creative and spending time in the kitchen baking.
