Perinatal & Infant Support
2 weeks ago
PODS is an award-winning charity based in Telford and Wrekin who supports families with children aged 0-25 with an additional need or disability. Alongside a carer friendly accreditation, we support and employ a diverse small team of employees, we are a compassionate employer who strives to support and develop our workforce.
This role was brought about through feedback from families and a collaboration between PODS and Telford & Wrekin Family Hubs. The role is designed to improve the health and wellbeing of new parents with disabled babies and infants.
We are seeking an enthusiastic and compassionate individual who can work alongside existing staff to deliver support to families who have a child under 3 years old who is newly diagnosed with an additional need/disability or preterm expectant mothers who have been identified as carrying a disabled baby.
Your role will be to support the family from the identification of the possibility of SEND, helping them to navigate the system and understand the jargon and terms used. The role will involve 1-1 emotional and practical support to the family and attendance at meetings ensuring that they understand processes and feel supported throughout their new journey. You will be required to establish good working relationships and links across a range of services throughout the NHS and Local Authority.
There will be an element of signposting of partner services and organisations, knowledge and experience of children services is essential. The role would be ideal for an individual who has experience of having a SEND child from birth or a very young age.
You will be required to facilitate and plan activities for two stay and play groups during term time and provide ad hoc sessions during school holidays.
Applicants will be asked to complete a DBS check as well as provide 2 references.
The successful applicant will be completing duties in line with their job title as well as offering support to other staff and the voluntary team.
Please note that this is a hybrid role and will involve working from an office base, with some flexibility for home working and as business needs demand differing locations within Telford & Wrekin (reasonable travel expenses will be paid). It will involve an element of lone working.
To ensure success of this peer support role, it is essential the individual has lived experience of children with SEND, preferably from birth/early years.
Eligibility to Work: Applicants must have the right to work in the UK. We are unable to offer sponsorship for this role.
