About the Employer
I am mum to a young boy with autism and I am looking for a PA to give me a break from my caring role. My son is friendly and affectionate and he loves cuddles and to hold hands. He finds this type of contact reassuring and comforting and it helps him to regulate. He loves to dance and listen to music. He is non-verbal and he uses body language and gestures to communicate. He loves the outside environment; he enjoys running and climbing. He is more relaxed in less busy environments. He has no awareness of roads or danger when outdoors so he needs to be closely monitored. He loves being talked too, and he gets excited with numbers and letters, along with trucks, trains and buses. He is doubly incontinent and wears incontinent pads so personal care may be needed while away from the family home. Previous experience of working with children with complex needs is essential.
