I’m looking for an ad-hoc carer / babysitter for my son, 7, who has ASD.  He is  articulate, bright and funny, but because of his SEN he struggles to access regular activities and so can’t attend clubs or participate in most activities appropriate for his age. This means his life outside of school has been until now very restricted to home and mum and dad, as we have another child we also need to accomodate and it’s hard to find activities they can both access. 

 

We’re looking for someone to take him for 4 hours per week on a weekend, generally out of the house, and take him to activities so that he can get some more experience of being with people outside of the immediate family. The types of activities might be things such as the cinema, going to the park, bowling and so on. 

 

There will be an opportunity for further babysitting or hours on top of the core 4 per week.

 

SEN experience would be ideal, as whilst my son is verbal and physically able, he sometimes needs additional support with his behaviour which could be tricky to navigate for someone without experience of autism. 

 

££ negotiable / competitive

Hello! My name's Ajax, I'm 18 and have lots of experience with SEN kids. Both my brother and partner have ASD and I myself have ADHD. I am available weekends starting 9th September, however if you have any weekday availability, I'm sure we could sort something out sooner.

    • I'm guessing they're busy. I found out just now that the SNT has tracked down the kids who attacked my dog, had strong words with their parents, and the gang has now broken up. I got a lot of detail, which I won't go into here, but it sounds as if they were also quite compassionate towards some of the kids, who came from less than optimal backgrounds, shall we say.  I know that those kids had nothing to do with the attack of the man in August and that they are also aware of the fireworks problem. Sounds like good community policing. 
    • I'd rather go to actual local Safer Neighbourhood Team meetings and see the whites of their eyes.  Ours in Peckham Rye Park ward (maps of areas the ward covers are on the police website; no idea about the new one!) used to be very well attended, but sadly now not so.  The local police of the SNT seem to change far too regularly so they never have a chance to really know the area and the people.  And the last meeting, held at the Tenants Hall of Brenchley Gardens (so right on the edge of the geographical area), was held with one day's notice.  Not good.
    • Friends of Peckham Rye Park sent emails to its members (do join if you can; it's useful) saying a few nights ago a fire was started on the SE22 side of the park by kids with fireworks.  Horrific.  
    • No One Said It  Was  However spending money you haven't got and increasing national debt is not a great way to run a country now is it ? Or has common sense left you 🤔
