About Dominic
Dominic is a bright, active 5-year-old who loves getting out and about. He enjoys doing his regular activities, and spending time outdoors. He can be a flight risk when out, so we are looking for someone who is vigilant and confident supporting him safely.

Your role
You’ll be supporting Dominic with:
1. Trips out and his favourite activities
2. Keeping him safe when outdoors
3. Toileting support
4. Encouragement, reassurance, and building a positive routine
5. Playing an active part in family life when you're here
A car and the ability to drive are essential, as Dominic needs transport for activities and for safe supervision.
