Job description

Location: within 5 miles of Llandrindod Wells
Hours: 1 hour per day (after school on weekdays, flexible on weekends)
Rate of Pay: £12.60
Start Date: ASAP

We are looking for a kind, patient, and reliable Personal Assistant to support a lovely 12-year-old girl with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in her home. She is a kind and caring young lady who communicates mostly through echolalic speech and gesture and thrives with routine, trust, and gentle support.

About Her:

She enjoys calm, familiar environments and benefits from a consistent routine.
She communicates mostly through echolalic speech and gesture, so someone who is observant, intuitive, and respectful of her communication style is essential.
She needs time to build trust and feel comfortable with new people, so patience and consistency are key.

Your Role:

Provide support with showering and personal care in a respectful, person-centred way.
Observe and follow her established routines, allowing her to lead at her own pace.
Build a trusting relationship through calm, consistent presence and gentle encouragement.
Support will be 1 hour daily after school, with flexibility on weekends.

About You:

You are calm, patient, and understanding, with a genuine interest in supporting young people with additional needs.
Experience with non-verbal communication or autism is helpful, but not essential – the right attitude and willingness to learn are most important.
You are reliable, respectful of privacy and dignity, and able to work closely with the family to ensure consistent care.

This is a rewarding opportunity to make a meaningful difference in a young person’s life by supporting her independence and well-being in a safe, familiar environment.
