Swimming jobs in United States

Activity worker/PA needed mainly over school holidays/weekends for a 15-year-old boy with ADHD and some learning disabilities.

In some ways, W is like a typical teenager and can have mood swings and be quite cheeky, so enjoying being around teenagers/young adults will be as important as being patient and calm. Having ADHD means that he is very active and likes to be kept busy all the time. In summer, he enjoys being outdoors a lot, but he also really enjoys long drives to the coast, etc. He also enjoys gaming.

From time to time, he enjoys activities such as going bowling, swimming, going to the cinema, and Go Ape.

Even though he is 15, W is in some ways more like a 9 or 10-year-old in that he can be very naive and is quite vulnerable when he doesn't have adult support around him to keep him safe.

The ideal person would be someone who is reasonably outdoorsy and active, and who would enjoy taking him on various outings and doing outdoor activities to help him burn off some energy. We’d also ideally like someone who has previous experience of working with neurodiverse children and/or with teenagers. Due to W liking going out to do activities, a car driver/car owner is essential.

Basic rate is £12.40 per hour plus holiday pay. This equates to FTE annual salary of £24,108.
