I am a 14-year-old boy who has Autism and lives with my family in Lake Coogee.
I am currently enjoying school and traversing the usual modern teenage dilemmas of anxiety, screens, and social pressures. Home is a comfortable place for me, with family close by, including Poppy and three cousins. I love gaming and having fun, as do my little brother and friends.
We play board games and video games (particularly computer games) and like to visit places like Bounce. I need support picking me up, dropping me off at school, and engaging in fun activities.
The role consists of 26 hrs a week. Mon, Tue, Thu 7:30-10:30, then 3:20-7:20 and possibly Saturdays. 9-1
You would need to commit to all hours and be a reliable part of the family team. You would also need to be comfortable doing tasks around the house for the family when not directly supporting me.
We need someone who can efficiently manage their time and take initiative without requiring constant supervision. My mother will always be available to provide guidance and assistance as needed.
The successful candidate would need to be flexible and adapt to the ever-changing needs of our daily routines, often going with the flow as the day unfolds.
