A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF

I am a 14 year old girl living with my parents and sister in the Llantrisant area. I have Autistic Spectrum Disorder and learning difficulties. My disability means I have a great need for routine as I can sometimes get upset and anxious. I get quite claustrophobic and really don't like loud noises or large crowds. I like quiet places with lots of space. It takes me time to process things and transition from activity to activity or place to place, so I need someone who is calm and patient to be with me. I do not liked to be rushed. I can communicate my basic needs and say a few words and phrases (some are clear, some are not) but have difficulties in understanding questions and conversing. Although I often need my own space, I do sometimes like some sensory input.

At home I like to spend time on my iPad and relax. I sometimes enjoy fiddling with my sensory toys. I Like to go out in the car and look out the window at the environment as t pass. I sometimes like going to the park. I have no sense of danger so I need someone to watch me at all times when I'm outside, particularly around road safety and water. When I am outside, I can take time to walk and transition from place to place or place to the car, so time and patience is often needed. I don't like being too close to other members of the public so it is important I always have my own personal space. I occasionally enjoy swimming.

PURPOSE OF JOB

This would involve travelling to the location of the activity in your vehicle, supervising me and ensuring my safety whist I'm there . I require support with all aspects of being out and about. Sometimes, the role may involve supervising me at home so my parents can leave the house to run errands.
