Our boy loves creative arts and physical play. He is not able to access mainstream child care or activities without parents there to support, as he gets overwhelmed. Now he is 9, he wants to do some things away from parents, like his peers do. We are looking for a special person who has the patience and energy to connect with our son, and who is willing to learn about therapeutic approaches to caring for children with attachment issues. His behaviour can be challenging at times, and we will work with whoever takes this post in order to plan ahead and reflect on how sessions have gone. You would not be left alone with him until we were all comfortable with that. Initially we are looking for 2 or 3 after-school sessions (days can be negotiated). We would start with activities in the home, hopefully moving onto local parks and maybe accompanying him to mainstream activities. School holiday working patterns are likely to be different. We live in Kirkham so you would need to be able to get to our home. This is a brilliant opportunity for anyone interested in related careers such as psychology, social work, child care, education or mental health. We can connect you into The Belay Foundation for training, supervision and a network of other SSWs across the country.

My daughter is a full time wheelchair user, I'm looking for a carer to meet her off the school bus at home, for 2 hours after school. Caidi is a lovly child who loves to chat, colour, play on i pad and play. She cannot walk so would need help with the toilet, if she needed it in that time.

The carer should have experience dealing with a child who has ADHD, autism, speech delay and sensory issues. Should have a car and be able to take him out to do activities.
