Personal Assistant

I am a 7-year-old boy in Dumfries looking for a reliable personal assistant for 12 hours per week during school holidays. This will be two days a week one weekday and one weekend day.

I enjoy being outside in all weather and going to the park to play on the basket swing. When at home I like playing with my toys, listening to music, being on my tablet or looking through books. I am autistic, non-verbal and often try to run away so need someone who can keep calm in difficult situations. I need support with toileting and assistance with personal hygiene. I am looking for someone who has experience working with children with disabilities.

These hours are during the school holidays only. Will be 13 weeks per year. Can be flexible with days. The rate of pay would be £13.45 per hour with paid annual leave of 5.6 weeks pro rata. A suitable PVG is required.
