AAC is central to Tommy s communication, and his nanny must be curious and motivated to develop their skills in this area. Tommy is small for his age, and it s important he is supported to grow in confidence and independence without being babied. Tommy benefits from being given plenty of time to complete tasks for himself, and he needs a nanny who has faith in his ability to achieve things in his own way and time.
