Do you hold an EU passport, speak fluent English (& ideally a bit of Portuguese) along with having previous SEN experience? We could have the perfect job role for you! This family resides on the beautiful island of Madeira, an autonomous region of Portugal known for its stunning natural landscapes, mild climate & welcoming community. You will have 3 children in your care; 2 boys aged 3 & 6 and their older sister who is 9 years of age. The youngest is a happy, outgoing child who is full of energy, his older brother has level 1 autism & a developmental age that is similar to his younger brothers; patience & a calm, consistent approach will be important working with him. The eldest is a confident & independent child who is in school & enjoys engaging with various activities. You will assist with the morning & evening routine (all children are in bed by 20:00) plan activities for the youngest, assist with various therapies & professional practitioners with the middle child & assist with learning support as necessary. You will see to all nursery duties throughout the week, including cooking; the 6-year-old prefers to be a bit repetitive in his diet, Mum & Dad would therefore like the successful applicant to gently introduce new foods & expand his palate. Your accommodation is in an independent building adjacent to the house; there is a therapy studio for the 6 year old & a separate guest suite that will be yours. You will work 5 days per week, with your 2 days off falling during the week. (06:30 – 20:00) with a break in the day. £1000 per week
