Job Title: Disability Support Worker

This is an exciting opportunity for a skilled and compassionate support worker to collaborate with a bright and creative 7-year-old boy who requires tailored support due to Autism (AuDHD) and traits consistent with Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA).

About the Participant:

  • Loves Minecraft, scootering around the park, imaginative play, and humor.
  • Requires a support worker who can meet him at his level—someone who is patient, fun, and understands how to support his needs using a gentle, low-demand, and child-led approach.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide calm, consistent, trauma-informed support during in-home and community activities.
  • Encourage engagement through play and shared interests.
  • Assist with emotional regulation and transitions, using PDA-aware strategies.
  • Maintain accurate progress notes aligned with NDIS reporting requirements.
  • Collaborate with the child's family and other professionals where appropriate.

About You:

  • Minimum 12 months experience supporting children with Autism and/or PDA.
  • Strong understanding of PDA approaches (e.g., indirect prompting, low-demand communication, collaborative problem-solving).
  • Trauma-informed, empathetic, and emotionally intelligent.
  • Active, creative, and flexible in adapting to the child's communication and sensory needs.
  • NDIS Worker Screening Check, WWCC, First Aid & CPR required.
  • Driver's licence and own vehicle preferred.
