Working Pattern:Saturday & Sunday: 3 hours per day (flexible timing)
We are looking for a nurturing, empathetic and reliable Personal Assistant to support J, a teenager with PTSD, anxiety, and emotional difficulties. J is warm and caring, but she experiences high levels of anxiety and takes time to build trust with new people. You'll play a key role in helping her feel safe and supported, especially in social situations.
About the Role:
This is not a standard care role. We're seeking someone with experience working with individuals who have experienced trauma and/or self-harming behaviours. You will need to offer emotional support and be a calm, consistent presence in J's life.
Responsibilities Include:
Providing emotional reassurance and companionship
Supporting J with accessing the community and social activities (e.g. swimming, bowling, walks, etc.)
Helping build J's confidence in social environments
Ideal Candidate:
Experienced in trauma-informed care or emotional/mental health support
Patient, kind, and naturally nurturing
Non-smoker
Dog-friendly (one small dog in the home)
Comfortable driving -- a car is essential, as J does not use public transport
DBS check required
Flexibility:
Some flexibility around hours is appreciated. Weekend timings can be adjusted slightly to suit both parties. This role may suit someone looking for part-time hours, or a second position alongside other commitments.
Shared Interests:
J enjoys swimming, bowling, walking the dog, and bike rides -- bonus points if you do too!
If you're kind, dependable, and believe you can offer J the consistent support she needs to flourish, we'd love to hear from you.
