JOB DESCRIPTION

PERSONAL ASSISTANT

A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF

I am an 18 year old female living with my family in Barry. I am very witty and have a great sense of humour. It can take me quite a while to build trust with someone new but once I get to know you, I do like to have a bit of banter. I absolutely love any animals and I can tell you everything about them- this is one of my favourite interests.

I have been diagnosed with severe learning difficulties and have autistic traits; I just need extra time to understand things. I like to have structure in my life and I prefer to know all the details to help me prepare for the day, as I don’t like sudden change. This can really affect me and could make me change my mind even at the very last minute. I love anything to do with singing and dancing and I have a karaoke machine, which I usually turn on as soon as I get home from school. I especially enjoy singing Little Mix as they are one of my favourite groups.
