Vacant job

The client is a 25-year-old girl who lives a somewhat independent life on a farm with her mother, horses, a dog, and a cat.

Due to her autism diagnosis and IF, she has great difficulty reading, understanding, and relating to what is happening outside her inner world. This leads to stress, anxiety, and insecurity. The client has a complicated disability that requires a lot from her surroundings to provide the support that makes her everyday life safe and meaningful.

With clear structure and communication tailored just for her, she manages most things in her daily life.

For this position, we need someone who understands, can, and wants to enter the client's world. The client is interested in internet culture, video games, movies, and series. She is creative and a skilled artist/designer/crafter and is interested in Cosplay.

If you want to become her assistant, you need to:

• Have an interest in learning, understanding, and accepting how our client functions.
• Good knowledge and/or a strong interest in understanding and learning about Autism and IF.
• Not be scared if the client becomes frustrated, scared, insecure, and therefore screams and has meltdowns. This requires great calm and presence from the surroundings.
• Have similar interests as the client.
• Be an animal lover and comfortable with a farm dog.
• Be meticulous and respect the client's difficulties with changes and carelessness.
• Be able to work in Word and image programs to create visual schedules (training will be provided, what’s important is that you have an interest in learning).
• Be seriously engaged with the client and understand your important significance for her.
• Be secure in yourself and be the support she needs but also know when to step back.
• A driver's license and a car are helpful as bus connections are very limited.

It is very important to be self-sufficient, independent, and creative to provide the support the client needs. You will, of course, receive training and onboarding on how the client's support needs should be structured.

If you believe you are the right person for this position, you will develop a wonderful relationship with the client and work in a lovely farm environment independently but still with support from the client's team.

The position is part-time but may potentially be extended to full-time.
