  As soon as possible About Us We are a friendly family based in Bath looking for a kind, patient, and reliable Personal Assistant (PA) to help support our two sons aged 8 and 4, who both have high-need, nonverbal autism.

Our oldest son also has a genetic condition called Coffin-Siris Syndrome.

Both boys are full of energy

• they love climbing, bouncing, and exploring.

Our oldest enjoys sorting objects by colour and shape, while our youngest adores plants and playing with water.

Because of their complex needs, both boys require close supervision at all times for safety.

About the Role We are looking for someone who can provide practical support and a caring presence during afternoon/evening sessions at home.

Responsibilities include:

Providing support to each child, ensuring their safety at all times Assisting with eating, changing clothes, and pad changes Engaging the boys in simple, sensory-based play that aligns with their interests.

Helping maintain a safe environment (doors and gates locked, constant supervision

• especially as our youngest tends put objects in his mouth) This role would best suit someone with experience supporting children with high-needs autism, but we’re open to training the right person who shows patience, empathy, and initiative.

We are looking for someone who can make a long-term commitment to the role, helping to provide consistency and continuity for the boys.

Essential Requirements First Aid qualification (or willingness to complete one) Compassionate, calm, and attentive Desirable Experience working with children with nonverbal autism Non-smoker COVID-vaccinated (preferred but not essential) Female preferred (for personal care reasons), though all genders considered with the right experience.

Hours Two afternoon/evening session midweek (flexible day and timing) One weekend afternoon every other week Additional flexible support during the holidays We’re happy to discuss the exact schedule to suit both parties.

If you are caring, dependable, and interested in making a real difference in two lovely boys’ lives, we’d love to hear from you.
