Recruiter: Rachael

About this client/child: Louie is a 10-year-old boy with a contagious smile and a joyful disposition. He enjoys a variety of activities such as soft play, swimming, attending the theatre, going for walks, and visiting funfairs. Louie is a fan of shows like Hey Duggee and Peppa Pig, as well as animated films. He has two younger brothers, Elliott (7) and Timmy (4), who are both bright and creative. Elliott is passionate about mathematics and word searches, while Timmy has a keen interest in trains and enjoys spending time at local playgrounds. The family enjoys outdoor adventures together, often going on bike rides. Louie was born with a rare chromosome disorder, which means he is non-verbal and has severe learning difficulties. He requires assistance with eating (pureed food only), drinking, and all aspects of personal care. Despite his challenges, Louie communicates effectively using facial expressions, Makaton, and a communication book. Although he is mobile, he uses a specialist buggy for longer outings. Louie is smaller than his peers and sometimes experiences sensory processing issues, which can lead to behaviors like chewing, stimming, or rocking. He is a warm, engaging child with a lot of love to share.

Overview of role: This role involves joining a dynamic, loving family to provide support as an SEN Nanny/Manny. Louie’s mother is a full-time stay-at-home mum, and the role requires a collaborative approach to managing the busy household and caring for the children. The primary focus will be on supporting Louie, but you will also assist with his siblings and their activities, especially during after-school hours. Louie returns home at 4:00 pm, and his siblings attend a school just a 6-minute walk away. The role may involve facilitating Louie's participation in after-school clubs or helping the other boys with homework and club pickups.

Who this job would suit: The ideal candidate for this role will ideally have at least one year of experience working with children with additional needs and be comfortable providing personal care. The family is looking for someone engaging, fun, creative, energetic, and adventurous. The role is perfect for an individual ready to jump in and contribute to the family's busy routine.

What’s great about this job: This is a fantastic opportunity to work with a fun and lively family in a supportive environment. The role offers the chance to explore the local area and enjoy a variety of activities with the children. The family places a strong emphasis on teamwork, making this a rewarding and enjoyable position.
