Job Description

Personal Support Assistant - Sunday afternoon 4 hours

I am a 10yr old boy with a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and ADHD.



I love playing with my favourite toys-trains, Lego, and bugs - and I find comfort in familiar routines and environments. I am chatty and love to talk about my interests.





I enjoy watching YouTube and DVDs, and my iPad is one of my favourite ways to relax. I have a warm and loving relationship with my family. Although I can be very funny and imaginative, I do sometimes find it difficult to cope with transitions or unexpected changes, and I may become distressed or overwhelmed.





I also need help with developing my independence, this role is more than just supervision - it's about creating a lasting, positive relationship with me.
