We’re looking for a friendly, caring Personal Assistant to support a bright and resilient 5‑year‑old girl who loves gentle walks, calm company, and a predictable routine. She has a number of complex medical needs, including dystonia, chronic lung disease, short gut syndrome, cerebral palsy (high tone), developmental delay, cerebral visual impairment, reflux, and she is gastrostomy‑fed — so we’re looking for someone confident and experienced.
When we need you:
- Fridays 12:30pm–2pm
- Sundays 11am–3:30pm
What you’ll be doing:
- Helping with gastrostomy feeding
- Personal care and medication
- Enjoying short walks together
- Keeping her room and care space tidy and clean
- Bringing calm, warmth, and a positive attitude
What you need:
- Medication training
- Feeding training (Parent will give full training on her specific routines — you won’t be on your own.)
If you’re someone who brings kindness, patience, and a steady pair of hands, this could be a lovely role for you.
