At Care in Mind our homes are always a hub of activity and energy where the young people can feel safe, and our staff enjoy coming to work.

Our young people can still be quite active at night so you will have lots of interaction and will be required to support them their wellbeing, education, household tasks and general life skills.

There will also be more challenging aspects to the role such as incident management and de-escalation of challenging behaviours.

You will be required to update online care records, complete medication administration and provide effective handovers to the day staff.

In addition, you will be responsible for the general upkeep and tidiness of the home ensuring the young people live in homely environment.

Even though you are working nights, you will have the support of another night worker or a sleep in and have access to an on-call manager for additional support.

At our home in Neston, we support up to 5 Young People with a committed staff team. We have a lovely home with a spacious garden with room for relaxation, creativity and recreation area for sports.

Situated on the Dee side of the Wirral Peninsula, midway between the cities of Chester and Liverpool and close to North Wales, it has many features of interest for visitors.

This friendly historic market town, with weekly Friday market, has free parking and bus and train links.

The surrounding villages are linked by the Wirral Country Park, the first of its kind in the country, which provides a focus for many local walks and cycle rides.

The home is situated with close local transport links within walking distance.

No two days are the same, you will be a part of a creative, fun and inclusive team who thrive on making a positive and meaningful difference to Young People's lives on a daily basis.

Previous care experience is not essential and full training will be provided.

You will receive ongoing support and mentoring from our friendly residential and clinical team which includes Reflective Practice, 1:1 supervisions and Group Staff support.


The job is highly rewarding and a great start to developing your career working with young people or enhancing your previous experience of mental health with the opportunity for excellent career development.
