Whatever your path, we need determined, resilient people to be long lasting, significant adults in a child's life.

  • You will create positive relationships with the children, meeting their needs and always safeguarding them.
  • You will create timetables, setting boundaries and expectations for the young people. Consistency and organisation skills are key.

What makes us different?

-
Direct therapeutic work with children - We aim to provide all children with therapy, driven by industry leading psychologists and practise. This will include therapeutic training for all staff.
