We’re seeking a warm, upbeat PA to support our 8-year-old daughter, Skyla. She is autistic, has ADHD and PDA, so experience with these would be helpful. Skyla is friendly, bubbly and loves being out and about, choosing activities herself.
-
You’ll support Skyla with:
• Fun community outings (swimming, soft play, cinema, walks, horse-related activities, museums, colouring, baking)
• Providing respite for parents
• Light support such as preparing snacks and drinks
• Encouraging independence — no personal care, but checking she’s dried properly after swimming
-
We’re looking for someone who:
• Is energetic, positive, and child-focused
• Enjoys being active and planning fun days out
• Has experience with autism/ADHD/PDA (desirable)
• Has a valid DBS check (we can arrange this)
-
Benefits:
As an employed personal assistant, you will be eligible for free membership to the Independent Living Group. Benefits include:
• Eligibility to sign up for the Blue Light Card for only £4.99 which gives you access to a large range of discounts across retail, leisure, and other services at companies nationwide
• Counselling helpline, legal helpline and personal financial support
• Shopping discounts platform
• My Mind Pal mental health app subscription
-
This role is much more “take Skyla out and have fun” than staying indoors — perfect for someone who loves engaging, playful support.
