The Role 

We are looking for a friendly, enthusiastic, and reliable Female Personal Assistant (PA) to support a young girl named Frankie. The role focuses on helping her safely access and enjoy her local community while promoting her independence. 

About Frankie 

Frankie is an almost 12-year-old girl with a bright, happy personality. She is very friendly, loves to stay active, and enjoys being outdoors. Her favourite activities include: 

  • Playing in the garden 
  • Visiting the park 
  • Going for walks along the River Tyne 
  • Swimming and trampolining 
  • Colouring in (her absolute favourite!) 

Frankie has Global Developmental Delay and experiences emotional and attachment challenges. She may become dysregulated, especially during school periods or in busy environments. She requires support in recognising when to take a break from overstimulating situations. Although she communicates well and follows instructions, she has no sense of danger, so safety awareness is crucial. Frankie can form attachments quickly and may be blunt in her communication, so a calm and professional PA is essential.

About me.

Hi!

My name is Alf, I’m 10 years old, and my Mam and Dad are looking for a special person to hang out with me and take me on fun adventures!

I love gaming (seriously—I could talk about it for hours!), swimming, walks, the beach, trampolining, and anything that keeps me busy and having fun. Sometimes I find it hard to stay focused on things I’m not into, but if you love gaming or just having a laugh, we’ll get along great!

I have Autism and ADHD, which means sometimes I can get stressed, impulsive, or shout when I’m feeling overwhelmed—but don’t worry, my family can help you learn how to help me calm down again. I also have a younger brother, Charlie, who has Autism and a learning disability too. We love each other but sometimes need space apart, which is where you come in!

What I’m looking for:

  • Someone kind, patient, and fun who loves to keep busy.
  • Someone who enjoys gaming!
  • Someone who can help me regulate when I’m stressed or upset (don’t worry, you’ll get advice and support from my grown-ups too).
  • Ideally someone with experience of Autism and ADHD.
  • A driver (preferred) who can take me to cool places like the park, beach, trampoline parks or even just for an ice cream.

The Role:

  • You’ll be my Personal Assistant—helping me have fun, explore new activities, and giving me some chill time away from home.
  • Hours are mostly weekends, around 4 hours, but we’re flexible and can chat about what works for you.
  • During school holidays, we might be able to plan even more fun adventures together.

If you’re caring, full of energy, love gaming, and want to make a real difference in a young lad’s life, then I’d love to meet you!
