- Assist with personal care tasks, such as hygiene, dressing, and feeding.
- Support children in educational and recreational activities, promoting social inclusion.
- Foster positive relationships with children to support their emotional development and self-confidence.
- Work collaboratively with colleagues, external professionals, and families to ensure holistic care.
- Assist in maintaining a clean, safe, and nurturing environment.
- Support children in managing emotions and behaviors through de-escalation techniques.
- Participate in team meetings and ongoing training to improve the quality of care.
- Build positive relationships with relatives and external agencies.
- Safeguard all young people in line with company policies and procedures.
- Promote development within the team to enhance the young people's experiences.
- Follow safeguarding procedures to identify and report potential abuse or neglect.
What We're Looking For
- Previous experience working with children, particularly those with learning disabilities or additional needs (essential).
- Supervisory experience is beneficial but not essential.
- Diploma Level 4 in Health and Social Care (Children and Young People) or equivalent (required).
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to build rapport and work effectively within a team.
- A caring, patient, and empathetic attitude, with a commitment to promoting the rights and well-being of children.
- Ability to manage challenging behaviors calmly and professionally.
- Flexibility to work shifts, including evenings, weekends, and sleep-in duties.
- A desire to progress within the role and embrace professional growth opportunities.
- Up-to-date knowledge of legislation and local policies.
