Special Needs Care Jobs

Mohamed is a four year old child living with autism and what we would need would be applied behavioural analysis (ABA) tutoring. This would be overseen by a BCBA, a board certified behavioural analyst, meaning that you don't need any formal training. How this would work is that you would work directly with Mohamed for 6h a week, and have a training session with the BCBA for 1h a week to prepare you for the sessions.

We are looking for an enthusiastic individual who is passionate about helping children and young people especially the one with educational need. Our daughter has a well established ABA program running for many years under the supervision of BCBA certified consultant. We have training sessions for interested and committed candidates who would like to enhance their career in ABA therapies. Obviously some ABA knowledge and experience would be an advantage, however training could be provided if you show interest and commitment. We live in Cambridge and would welcome flexible hours of work mutually agreed with the suitable candidate after review of their CV and informal interview. Please feel free to contact if any further information is required or send in your CV initially.

It’s £11.44p/h; part time job with the hours per week varying and split between the team. Generally, it would be coming in for a bit in the morning and/or in the evening. Shifts should last no longer than 1/1.5hrs but can be potentially longer if going out (e.g. to appointments). Day to day duties include cooking, cleaning, walking the dog, helping Charlotte shower, organising her appointments (making phone calls), sorting her medication out etc. In the week, you may also need to help Charlotte out into the community to do activities she enjoys and to various appointments. Charlotte is an ambulatory wheelchair user, so she can walk a small amount, however her mobility is severely limited. Charlotte has quite a few medical conditions, both visible and not visible, so it’s important to have someone who is empathetic to this but not afraid to help motivate her when needed. The main thing for Charlotte is to have someone who can have a chat and a laugh with her, and sarcasm is a bonus, but will also make sure things are being kept organised and keep on top of what needs to be done. It would also be great if you shared some interests with Charlotte, shes into anything creative like art and music. The job is particularly suited to people who are looking for second shift work, or work around children. It’s a job thats well suited to fitting in around your schedule. Care experience is preferred but not necessary for the right candidate.

Hi there. I’m looking for childcare for my 13yo daughter with suspected ADHD/school anxiety issues for a September 2024 start. She attends school, but help is needed for the times where she struggles to be there, so I’m looking for availability Mon-Fri, 8-4. She is a lovely child - highly intelligent, sociable and friendly. Tasks would include picking her up from school if she cannot be there (she is likely to be on a reduced timetable from September), and keeping her company until I get home, helping with homework and generally just being a good support for her. This role would suit someone with experience with adolescents and mental health.

We are looking for a support worker/carer for our 20 year old son, who has autism, who is able to provide 1:1 support to him at college and at home. He attends college on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday 9.30 am to 3.30 pm and will need support to stay focused on his work at college and to complete simple work tasks at home including help to prepare snacks etc. until 5.30 pm. Although we are happy to work with more then one person across the 3 days we would need one person for a full day (9 to 5.00/5.30 pm) so the role would not be suitable for someone who is available for only a few hours/half a day. Duties would also include supporting our son with social skills, to manage risks and stay safe whilst at college. The qualities we desire above all would be those of honesty, reliability, patience and kindness. Some ability in English and Mathematics would be a help. Our son has a long established ABA (Applied Behavioural Analysis) home based program where tutors supported him across home and his mainstream school. The program is moving towards a PBS (Positive Behaviour Support) model. It is fun and fast moving and allows lots of opportunities for wide and varied teaching and support. His support worker of 11 years has all of these qualities but has recently left to do a PGCE in order to train as a teacher so he urgently needs support. Experience of ABA/PBS is not required as initial and ongoing training will be provided by an ABA/PBS Consultant. Aptitude in Mathematics and English would be required (a minimum GCSE level). Knowledge of psychology would be helpful but not essential The post will require an enhanced DBS check.
