Vacant job

We are looking for someone who wants to work part-time as a substitute caregiver. Working as a substitute can be combined with studies or another main occupation as working hours are usually scheduled in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends.

What does the role entail?

We are looking for a substitute for a girl in her early teens living in Vaxholm. As a substitute, you relieve the parents and spend time with the girl on her terms. For this client, your main task is to find activities to do together with the girl at home, in the local area, or on other types of outings. This means that as a substitute, you should support the client in various activities such as swimming, horse riding, going to the cinema, or having coffee. The purpose is to enable the client's participation in society and to contribute to the client having a meaningful leisure time. You will sometimes spend time with the girl's family and sometimes spend the time on your own. The girl has Level 1 Autism and ADHD, which means her interests change quickly, as does her energy level.

The number of working hours may vary depending on how many hours the client is granted, and this client is granted 3 hours of substitute service per week. There is no scheduled working time; instead, the hours are usually distributed in the evenings and on weekends, and are arranged in consultation and dialogue with our client and project manager. The time can, based on the family's wishes, be distributed with, for example, 6 hours every other weekend, but initially, it is positive if you are flexible and can meet for shorter but more frequent periods.

About you

With this girl, you need to be active, inventive, and responsive, while also possessing the ability to stay calm and read other people's energy. It is positive if you have good fitness and are agile, so that you can be active together. It is also positive if you have experience with NPD (Neurodevelopmental Disorders) diagnoses or have an interest in deepening your knowledge in this area.

We are looking for someone who has an interest in working with other people and who wants to become an important adult in a child's life. Experience or formal education is not a requirement. Great emphasis is placed on personal chemistry, where good treatment, great flexibility, and care are important qualities.

It is a requirement that you are not allergic to fur-bearing animals (dogs, horses).

A prerequisite for starting employment with us is that the applicant can present a valid ID document as well as a valid tax certificate (personbevis) and/or any documents proving the right to work in Sweden.

If you are to work with children and young people under 18, you are required to present a certificate of no criminal record.
