Assistance for our 12-year-old son

We are looking for an assistant for our 12-year-old son. The working hours may vary, but we are currently mainly looking for weekdays after school from 5:30 PM to 9:00 PM. However, if any of our other assistants are off or sick, there may also be opportunities to work on weekends.

About our son Adam:

Adam is a cheerful and lively boy who loves to be active. He enjoys going on outings, especially to playgrounds, 4H farms, and training tracks in scenic environments. He also likes to travel by bus and train, swim, listen to music on TV, and play with his iPhone.

Adam has a rare chromosomal abnormality that has resulted in an intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder. He is motorically strong and can move by himself but is at a younger child's cognitive level and therefore needs help with all aspects of his daily life such as hygiene (diaper changes), dressing, meals, mobility, training, and more. Adam lacks verbal speech and is being trained to use PECS (Picture Exchange Communication System).

About you:

We want Adam to develop in the best possible way, and we hope that you:

• Are proactive and dare to challenge yourself and Adam to come up with fun activities.
• Are curious to learn about the child's limitations and potential.
• Are reliable, organized, and responsible, with the ability to adapt to different working methods and situations.
• Are empathetic and have good communication skills.
• Are smoke-free.

Working hours:

The working hours are scheduled Monday to Thursday from about 5 PM to 9/10 PM.

We prefer that you have previous experience in assistance, are active, and have no problems taking your own initiatives.

Please state your salary expectations when applying. Interviews will be conducted continuously via phone and/or in person.

Collective agreements are in place, and we offer our employees wellness benefits.
