    My daughter is an active 7-year-old with lots of interests and I am looking to recruit a Personal Assistant to support her in the community. Support will also be required with personal care as my daughter is currently wearing continence pads. She would like to do crafts, go to the Zoo and would love to try horse riding. Our daughter can lose attention if the activities are too repetitive.
