About Freedom


Freedom Care is a growing company that has been providing services to parents, social services and the NHS for over 20 years.

In this time we have grown into a multi-faceted organisation offering bespoke solutions based around a broad range of services.

Our Social Care Services are carefully designed to provide specialist one-to-one advice and practical support on a range of development needs and complex issues.

People are at the heart of our business, both in terms of the clients who receive our services and the staff that deliver them.

As such, Freedom places great emphasis on the wellbeing of its staff and the support they receive in their role.

The provision of caring and compassionate services does not simply require people with these attributes but the necessary skills and abilities to deliver them.

We therefore ensure all our staff are equipped with the necessary training to perform their roles with confidence and to grow as individuals.

To aid our teams we have also invested heavily in information technology to allow your energy too be focused on the key tasks.


Essential Skills


You should have experience of working with young people of Primary school age, who are Neurodiverse and display challenging behaviors.

You should be able to "get alongside" the young person to role model and guide them.

Who we are looking for
Your values as a person should align with Freedom's which are: Care, Empathy, Trust, Respect, Compassion, Understanding and Trust


You need to be confident but have this underpinned by knowledge and experience and be calm, reflective and agile allowing you to pivot your approach to mirror the young person's needs on any given day.


You will also need a good sprinkling of resilience to not allow the demand of the role to deplete your energy levels and be able to not take the behaviors of the young person personally.

You should be self-motivated, energetic and possibly bring additional skills alongside the core requirements of this role. You should be someone who is looking to make a difference to a young person's life.
