Bishop Auckland, United Kingdom The Belay Foundation Full time

The Belay Foundation places Specialist Support Workers in the homes of families whose children have previously been in local authority care. This position is supported by Arc Adoption.

This role, with a family in the Bishop Auckland area, is to support a gorgeous four-year-old and his family for 5 hours a week.

Chris* is imaginative, creative, energetic, smart and affectionate. He loves everything to do with animals - whether building pretend zoos, or sharing his dinosaur expertise - and also really enjoys sensory play, hanging upside down from the climbing frame, and jumping on the trampoline. Very high energy, Chris is extremely engaging but also needs a high level of attention. He lives with the impact of his earliest life experiences, which mean that he finds some aspects of life difficult. Chris can be impulsive and struggles to manage his emotions. He is very close to his immediate family and loves nursery - but always takes time to build up his confidence with new people.

The role will naturally take time to develop, but the aim will be for you to spend time with Chris out and about exploring and playing, probably during the day on Saturdays and maybe at another time during the week too. You will be happy to establish a long term relationship with this family, have experience of working with children, and an interest and preferably experience in the developmental impacts of attachment and trauma and in supporting children with sensory needs. You will need to be playful, energetic, curious and open to new experiences - while also being mature, emotionally grounded, resilient and patient.

To support you The Belay Foundation will offer training in attachment and trauma, safeguarding, professional boundaries and regulating techniques, as well as other any other preparation that will help you in the role. You will also receive ongoing support, peer supervision and clinical supervision. This is a great opportunity to develop your practice supporting children with trauma and to learn about the impact of complex additional needs on a child’s development and family life.

**Role Details**
- **Benefits**:£12-14 per hour; training; CPD opportunities; peer and clinical supervision
- **Professional opportunities**: The chance to link into a community of Specialist Support Workers and make professional connections
- **Hours**:5 hours per week, probably Saturday daytime and maybe one evening a week - details to be confirmed
- **Location**: Bishop Auckland area (DL14)
