Description of Individual : Our 7 year old daughter is an amazing, spunky, creative and sweet little girl. She is fun to be with. However, our daughter also has PTSD, ADHD, Early Childhood Trauma, Learning Challenges, Anxiety, Possible High-functioning ASD, at times displays the symptoms of ODD, as well as a chromosomal syndrome. The great thing about her is that she saves most of her challenging behaviour for us, her adoptive parents. She is sometimes headstrong, demanding and will try to get her way - but she will very likely not melt-down or experience any major behavioural outbursts with a Respite worker. Having said that - we still REQUIRE a worker who can confidently deal with her behavioural challenges, read her cues and meet her needs no matter what.
Worker's Role : We need a worker who will be a hands-on, play with our girl kind of person. Someone willing to form a bond with her, and to make her feel special and get their full attention. Someone who is confident that they can deal with her challenging behaviour should it arise. Depending on the time the worker is with her, they might have to feed her a meal, put her to bed, or just have a great play-date! We are looking for someone committed to getting to know her - and building a special bond with her.
Availability : Occasional weekday evenings.
