Experience of working with children with Autism is required. Nelly takes medication for her medical needs, and this is managed by her mum.

Nelly is looking for a Social Personal Assistant to assist and accompany her to utilise the local community and enjoy her chosen activities. Nelly requires permanent supervision as she has no sense of danger and will take risks. A car driver is preferred as Nelly enjoys trips out in the car and it helps regulate her. There is no personal or domestic care in this role.

A good level of fitness will be required for this position as you would be required to use a specialist pushchair for outings if Nelly required this.
