Waking night care for our 11 year old daughter (Derby area)
by Marie-Anne • Breadsall
We are looking for a caring lady who could support us one night a week, to keep our 11 year old daughter safe through the night. She has complex health needs, including night time seizures caused by epilepsy and requires breathing support due to sleep apnoea. Experience in night time care and health needs is required. However we will provide training in epilepsy, respiratory support, paediatric first aid, and other relevant training to support our daughter. We have one (10 hours) overnight shift available per week, at £15-hr. There will be opportunities for additional shifts to cover for illness and holiday, as well as some flexibility in the nights of the week. Start date is flexible and should suit both parties.

Looking for an enthusiastic Personal Assistant for our daughter, in the Derby area
by Marie-Anne • Breadsall
Our little girl is 11 years old and is an amazing child who makes sense of the world in a very sensory fashion. She loves music and water, and really enjoys interaction on a one to one basis through sensory play.
As our daughter is home schooled full time, we are looking for an enthusiastic & self-driven individual. Having some experience in SEN, PMLD, as well as special needs care, would be a great advantage, although we will provide training. This person would join our fabulous team (consisting of an SEN teacher, an experienced TA and a physiotherapist), develop a relationship with our daughter whilst working with her to engage in her educational activities and just get as much enjoyment from her life as possible.
The total weekly hours would be 10-15hrs at £12/hr (specific days to be discussed at the interview). We would occasionally have some additional hours available (to cover for holidays and illness) and would be happy to discuss what you can offer, our priority being your personality, skills and experience. We very much operate as a team and support each other by sharing ideas and expertise as we progress on this journey together.
We would require a DBS and can support with a DBS check application. Training would be provided in all relevant areas. Start date is flexible. We really look forward to welcoming another member to our little unit.

My child will be 5 years old this December and is a wonderful happy little girl who we cherish. She has complex needs and attends a special needs school in Derby City. She is non-verbal, has mobility problems, epilepsy and learning difficulties. She needs round the clock care and is dependent on her carer for feeding, taking medication, toileting and moving around. We are looking for a female personal assistant for Sophie who could support her:
- Every week - one OR two evenings for about 4 hours on week days
- Once a month - a full day at the week-end (either Sat or Sun)
The support hours are flexible and we would be happy to work alongside the PA so that it suits both both her and us. The PA needs to have a Driving Licence as well as DBS checks.
Training will be provided in Epilepsy, Moving and Handling, and Medicine Administration.
