Special Needs Care Jobs

We would like some help with school pick ups, weekend activities and holiday activities. We are flexible with days and number of hours. My son is sensory seeking and loves running, trampoline parks, soft play etc. His favourite toys are dinosaurs and animals. He can exhibit challenging behaviour when dysregulated. You will need to be physically fit and resilient. He is also cheeky, full of fun and has an amazing smile :-)

I need a companion for my child. He is 18.5 years old. He has moderate intellectual difficulty. Thursday is his day off from college ( he does a skills for work course catered for special needs young adults). I want someone who can take my son out on public transport, go to the park, play board games etc like a buddy/companion on his day off. Ideally a male but female can work too.

Hello! I’m looking for someone who is reliable, a good communicator and who shows dignity and respect towards others, to become a PA for my son. He is 6 years old and attends school. He has autism, social and communication learning disabilities and ARFID (an eating disorder). He is a complex little character who likes to surprise people when they least expect it, either by trying a new food or saying a new phrase or sentence. Ideally I would like to find someone with significant experience of working with SEN kids given he can be quite unpredictable at times and have meltdowns where he can hurt himself, and this is quite distressing to see. As a PA you’ll support my child with going out into the community and also support during the school holidays. You’ll work in our home in the area, in the evening and/or at the weekend (to be negotiated, but this can be flexible). You must have held a clean driving license for at least one year and be over 21 years of age. The rate of pay is around £12 per hour, for a minimum of 4 hours per week (this could be cumulated to provide extra support in the school holidays.) You will be given a full induction and training when in post. If you’re successful, you’ll need to provide an enhanced DBS check which will be paid for.

I require a personal assistant to primarily assist with healthy meal preparation for batch cooking, as well as some help with day to day domestic tasks as the need arises. I follow a plant based & fish diet need to stick to healthier eating for the benefit of my health, as what I eat really affects my condition. I struggle to cook regularly due to fatigue, pain and other MS symptoms. My MS can be unpredictable, so I will also require help with light household tasks, especially if I'm unwell and not physically managing to do things which could include folding and putting away laundry, general tidying and keeping organised, loading and emptying the dishwasher and taking bins/recycling out. These tasks would depend on the time available after cooking and my needs.
