TEMPORARY SUMMER ROLE — 3 weeks, mid July 2026
Monday to Friday, 8:00am – 5:00pm
Start Date: Mid July 2026
About the child/children/role: SENNIES is excited to support a warm family based in Oxfordshire in finding a dedicated, energetic Sennie for a 3-week temporary placement in mid July 2026. The role centres around providing focused 1:1 support for B4, a wonderful little boy who is full of life and affection, during the summer holiday period when he is not in nursery.
The family are looking for someone who can hit the ground running — bringing warmth, energy and experience to support B4's communication development, self-care skills and daily routine. There is also a sibling in the household, however the Sennie’s support will be exclusively for B4. The role is 5 days per week, 8:00am–5:00pm, and a live-in option is available for the right candidate (private room and private bathroom in the main house).
B4 is a cuddly, kind-spirited and very affectionate little boy who loves the people he knows. He has a gentle and happy nature — no aggression or tantrums — and is an absolute joy to spend time with. He is very active and loves to regulate with a good run around the garden. He has a wonderful curiosity about the world and a strong interest in organising and categorising — particularly colours and letters. He loves drawing, sorting pens by colour and looking at books.
B4 is likely Autistic and has a speech delay — he is currently awaiting a formal diagnosis. He attends nursery full-time during term time where he receives Speech and Language Therapy. He currently uses a small number of single words and is beginning to repeat words when prompted by pictures or toys, which is a wonderful sign of progress. At home, the family incorporates lots of one-to-one play, reading and drawing to encourage language development, and they are looking for a Sennie who can build on these foundations in a fun, consistent and nurturing way.
Key areas of focus for this role include supporting B4's speech and communication, helping him with getting dressed independently, potty training, and gently encouraging him to try new foods. A playful, patient and responsive approach will help B4 feel safe and supported throughout.
