About Field Day

Field Day Disability Support provides one-on-one support for children, teenagers and young adults with disability across Sydney, including many neurodivergent young people. We match each support worker with a family so you can build a consistent, trusted relationship over time.

About the role

We're looking for an experienced support worker for an 8-year-old male in Heckenberg (South West Sydney). He's outgoing, creative and very active, and loves his BMX, scooter, swimming, the beach, fishing and video games. He responds best to a calm, chatty, PDA-informed approach where trust and rapport come first.

- 3 weekday afternoons, around 2-5pm (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday), including school pick-up

- Ongoing, long-term role with the same family

What you'll do

- School pick-up and support with the after-school routine, building his independence (with a longer-term goal of catching the bus)

- Join in with active outings and play: scootering, bike riding, swimming and the park

- Follow his behaviour support plan, including completing the plan's short training modules and logging a quick data form after each shift





- Write a short shift note after every shift

What we're looking for

- Experience supporting children with autism, ideally with PDA or behaviours of concern

- Experience working from a behaviour support plan

- Calm, patient, chatty and active: someone who builds rapport easily and uses statements rather than demands

- Ideally shares some of his interests, like BMX, scootering, swimming, fishing or video games

- Car, full licence and a protected, careful driver

- Lives in or near the Liverpool, Fairfield or Campbelltown area

- Able to commit long-term

- Working With Children Check, National Police Check, NDIS Worker Orientation Module and First Aid/CPR (or happy to get them)

Pay and conditions

- $38 per hour (incl. 25% casual loading) + super

- This is a casual role with regular weekly shifts

How to apply

Apply with your resume and a few lines about your experience supporting children with autism and your weekday afternoon availability. Shortlisted applicants will proceed to a phone interview.
