PA Vacancy

Female Personal Assistant – EWINCL

Job title: Female Personal Assistant

Hours: Flexible working. Hours are negotiable.

Rates of pay: £13.00 per hour.

Location: Newcastle upon Tyne (NE13 area)

 

I’m looking for a Personal Assistant to support my daughter Erin who is 10 years old. Erin is a happy, smiley, lovely little girl who loves to dance and listen to music. Erin is a fan of Peppa Pig and loves looking at books and magazines.

I would like a PA to take Erin out to do some different activities. This will include going to the Tim Lamb and Alan Shearer centre. Erin may also try horse riding in the future as I think this will be something she’ll enjoy.

Erin has a condition called Phelan-McDermid syndrome, which is a rare genetic disorder that affects the development and function of the brain and body. Erin has little awareness of danger, so a Personal Assistant will need to be vigilant at all times. On occasion, Erin uses a wheelchair so you will need to be physically able to push this. You will initially spend time with me learning how best to communicate and support Erin as she is non-verbal.

A driver with clean licence is essential for this post.

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