Although 19, he has a mental age like that of preschooler/early primary school children and physical appearance of around 12 yrs. A young family with children of similar ages would be ideal as he loves playing games of this age group (primary school age). This is an amazing opportunity to bring a sense of personal well-being and fulfilment to your life and his. He is looking for a caring, loving, understanding and supportive family and in return he will bring lots of laughs and joy to your household. A placid and gentle person he loves trampolining, bird watching, dancing, music, going to the beach or the park. He loves being outside so a garden that is fenced would be great. He loves days out or just hanging at your place, whichever suits you and your family. He has a unique style of communication using an Ipad to talk, which you can learn to use too. He will need full supervision, and you need to be comfortable with changing nappies. Starting with a monthly/fortnightly weekend day care increasing to overnight respite care once a month or so, giving everyone time to get to know each other. No experience necessary just a kind and caring heart. Mum and dad will be on call if necessary. Potential employees will be subject to reference and police checks.

A family in Millwater are looking for someone to work either a Saturday or Sunday to support and spend time with their 16yr old disabled son.
This is a fun job for the right person. You need to be a kind and compassionate person who enjoys playing games and laughing at the things he laughs at. He loves trucks, lorries, and trains. He loves silliness, people who are bubbly, fun and funny. Spend your weekends on adventures to the zoo, the beach, Motat or places of interest.
His cerebral palsy means he needs physical help most of the time. Things like supporting him to walk, transferring him in and out of seating and chairs. Help to eat and drink and with personal cares. You need to be physically fit and energetic to give him the best support.
The weekend hours/days are flexible for about 7 hours on a Saturday or Sunday. You will need a car and a full licence. Pay is $24 - $30 per hour.
No experience necessary, just a genuine interest in being a great support and company for this young man.

Can you deescalate a tricky situation and move on with your day?
Do you have experience supporting people with compassion and confidence?
We are looking for two people to help a young man with an intellectual disability on his journey towards adulthood. Working as a pair, you will help him to head out in the community, particularly to the beaches and parks that he loves. He responds best to confident and calm people, people who are fit enough to run and play alongside him. He would love a strong male role model, but he likes all people who are clear in their communication and can find the fun in their day.
We are happy to adjust the hours to fit the people we find for the role, but we are looking for two people to work three days per week (Monday – Friday) about 9am –3pm. If you have experience with people with disabilities, mental health or youth at risk, this could be your chance to have a significant impact in a 1:1 relationship that can change this young man’s world. You need to have a full driver's licence to take him out on these adventures. Pay range is $28 -$30 per hour to reflect the skills required for this role.

Are you looking for a childcare role that works for you?
20-40 hours per week in Milford – This could be what you are looking for!
Your main focus will be to help an 11 year old autistic girl with her after school routine. She loves people who are warm, energetic and respectful. She enjoys being engaged and encouraged, while being allowed to lead the afternoons plans. Her disability means that she needs help with some core daily skills that she is still developing (such as personal care tasks & independence).
We are looking for an empathetic, experienced family assistant/nanny/support worker to spend time with this young lady and her two sisters 4 – 5 afternoons per week. We need you at least 2.30-6pm, but if you are open to helping more around the house and in the kitchen then your hours could be up to 11am – 7pm. We are happy to adjust the workload to match your skills and availability. Your availability to start ASAP would be a huge advantage.
You need your full driver licence and your own car to be successful in the role. We are looking for someone with childcare, disability or autism experience. If you are the person we are looking for we can support you with an engaging work environment, lots of fun and $28-$33 per hour.
