About this client/child: It was a pleasure to meet Rohan, an engaging 12-year-old boy who loves swimming and baths, sensory activities including Play Doh, trampolining, sand, and messy play – and is very motivated by food! He loves to play ‘rough and tumble’ and enjoys looking at photos and videos of himself, friends, and family members. He enjoys nice smells, going on holidays, massages, music, and dancing. He thrives on routine and can become bored easily. Rohan has a diagnosis of autism, ADHD, with possible OCD. He can become anxious and fixated on specific topics, upcoming events/schedules.  If he is overwhelmed, he may display behaviours that may challenge, including self-harming behaviour such as biting or hitting himself and breaking objects. This behaviour is not directed at others, but he may unintentionally lash out. Rohan is verbal; his receptive language is good, however his expressive language is delayed. Rohan struggles with self-care tasks and needs prompts and support, especially with personal care.

Who this job would suit: This role will suit someone who is calm, organised, and is naturally, a neat and tidy person.

You’ll be emotionally resilient, and professional in your work.

What’s great about this job: This is a great opportunity to gain further experience and work with a lovely young man.
