About Me
We are a fun, loving family living in Westgate on Sea near Margate.
We're a family of 4, with 2 girls aged 14 & 15. Our youngest daughter is ASD & ADHD and attachment anxiety.
My Requirements
I’m looking for a young woman closer to my daughter’s age (eg 17-27) to hang out with on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon for 3 hours. And ideally go on adventures with (she’s only really wanting to be at home atm, but is also bored!). Car is essential.
We’re an adoptive family with additional needs so we are cautious about letting new people in. Reliability & dependability, are essential.
She struggles to self-motivate and self/direct in trying new things - so lots of positivity, determination, understanding and creativity are needed. I’m struggling to help her and so coming with ideas are essential.
I’d really love her to go on adventures too - so needs someone who has lots of ideas about things to do and places to go - and can inspire confidence in her to give it a go.
At the moment she’s interested in cooking and the Tv show supernatural.
She is also struggling to get in to school and so someone who can occasionally help with this, especially on a Thursday morning, would be a help.

I have 2 teens with complex needs. My youngest is very reserved and doesn’t like new people. Verity came in and bonded with her immediately - despite my daughter’s resistance. As a result we’ve seen my daughter’s confidence grow and grow, and smile and laugh in a way we haven’t seen for a long while. Verity is incredibly reliable and conscientious, and has an energy and positivity about her that engages and connects with young people. I would highly recommend her to other families.

Communication
Emily was due to come and meet us at home. She didn't turn up or let us know she wasn't coming. I messaged and called and we haven't had a response. Very disappointing and frustrating.
