Pædagog søges til hesteglad 10 årig pige med autisme (Hinnerup -Favrskov)

This role requires a pedagogical assistant to support a 10-year-old girl with autism and severe anxiety, focusing on companionship, emotional support, and facilitating activities involving horses. The candidate should have experience or aptitude in working with children with special needs, particularly autism spectrum disorders and anxiety, demonstrating patience, empathy, and the ability to manage challenging verbal outbursts calmly without personalizing them. Key competencies include adapting to fluctuating energy levels, motivating participation in activities gently, and building trust through consistent, supportive communication over time. The position demands a practical understanding of behavioral support rather than personal care, as the child manages her physical needs independently. Working hours average 40.5 per week, Monday to Friday, requiring flexibility and commitment. A valid driver's license (category B) and access to a personal vehicle are mandatory, as travel by car is integral to the job. Training will be provided at the child's home by the parents, emphasizing the importance of collaboration and openness to learning. The role suits entry-level candidates with vocational education, highlighting interpersonal skills, reliability, and a genuine interest in equine-assisted activities and child development. Overall, the job combines pedagogical support with practical logistics, requiring emotional resilience, adaptability, and a supportive approach tailored to a child with special educational needs.
