Previous experience is desired
We are looking for someone who wants to work with a fun and wonderful boy, almost 7 years old, who enjoys play, social interaction, and creative activities. The boy needs a safe and present adult who can support him in his daily life and help him develop based on his own conditions.

We are looking for someone who is attentive, solution-oriented, and pedagogical, and who can create a calm and clear structure. Our client needs continuous attention and support, which makes your ability to stay one step ahead and work preventatively extra important.
You need to have a good understanding of different behaviors and the creative ability to find solutions based on the child's unique needs. We value a curious and open approach, where you adapt your methods to create safety and development.
Examples of tasks:
- Participate in playful, social, and creative activities together with the boy.
- Create structure and clear routines in daily life.
- Provide support with communication and social interaction.
- Facilitate social exposure in different environments.
- Support during meetings with new people and new situations.
- Work with a low-arousal and preventative approach to reduce stress and challenging behavior.
