Job Description

We are a busy working family living in Glanmire with two wonderful children: Robyn (14) and Freddie (8). Freddie has autism and is non-verbal; he is a very affectionate, cuddly, and easy-going boy. Robyn is very knowledgeable about her brother’s needs and is a great help, but we need an adult present to manage the routine and school runs. The Role: We are looking for a dependable person to help us bridge the gap between school and our return from work. School Runs: Collecting/dropping Freddie from Cara in Mayfield (5 minutes from our home). Full license and own car are essential. Hours: Typical afternoons from approx. 2:30 PM to 5:30/6:00 PM. Flexibility: We would love someone who can offer extra hours during Mid-term breaks. As one parent works nights, we need a few hours of quiet/coverage in the mornings/afternoons to allow for sleep between shifts. The Vibe: We need someone patient who enjoys a "cuddly" and loving environment. No complex medical needs, just a safe pair of hands and a warm heart. Requirements: Experience with ASD (Autism) or Special Educational Needs is a significant advantage. Full clean driving license and reliable car. Garda Vetting (or willingness to obtain it). Kind, patient, and punctual. What we offer: A friendly, welcoming home environment. Competitive hourly rate based on experience. Consistency and a long-term role for the right fit. If you think you’d be a good match for Freddie and our family, please get in touch with a bit about your experience and your availability. We look forward to hearing from you!
