I’m looking for someone to support my daughter, Maria, who is very sociable, chatty and cares about her family and friends. She loves animals, especially cats and dogs, so trips to parks and zoos are always enjoyed. Her other interests include doing painting, drawing, and colouring.

My daughter has a diagnosis of global development delay, she has a minor visual impairment as well as some mobility issues due to a few missing vertebrae. She can be quite emotional at times and struggles to manage her feelings.

We spend a lot of time together as a family, but I want her to develop more independence and greater awareness of the outside world. Having someone to spend time with Maria to encourage her social skills and engage with her in activities she enjoys would really be beneficial. I am keen to find a Personal Assistant who will be able to build a relationship with Maria, so she is comfortable and feels safe.

There is a genuine occupational requirement for the holder of this post to be female in accordance with the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 and Equality Act 2010 schedule 9 paragraphs 1 – 4.

This vacancy will close as soon as a suitable candidate is appointed.

At the time of starting their employment, the successful candidate must have permission to work in the U.K.
