About me

I’m a very happy, calm and bubbly 13-year-old girl with a brilliant character who has Pica and a severe learning disability. I love visiting zoos, soft play, trampolining, going for walks and to new places. Although I can get scared, I love to do current things and see new environments. As this can make me feel overwhelmed, you will need to take me aside to a quiet space so I’m able to re-regulate.



I’m non-verbal and, though I do know some verbal words, I communicate using a Proloquo2Go. As I have no danger awareness, road safety is vital, and you will need to keep me under constant supervision. This is especially important as, due to having Pica, I will eat non-food items.

Main Duties and Responsibilities:

- Supporting me with personal care
- Taking me out to new places (e.g. going for walks, to zoos etc)
