JOB DESCRIPTION

A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF

 

7 year old boy with ASD living in the Ely area of Cardiff. He is completely non-verbal and so we have begun to use Makaton with him. He is still in nappies and has an oral fixation (but not Pica). He is a very happy little boy who loves to give cwtches and be cwtched! He loves being at the park and the swings are his absolute favourite! I prepare all his meals due to his diet and food sensory issues - he likes you to hold the bowl for him but will happily feed himself.
