Are you looking to take the first step on a rewarding career ladder? Whether you’re an experienced care worker or looking to build a career in residential childcare, we’d love to hear from you. We’re looking for determined, caring and enthusiastic people to play a part in making a real difference in a child’s life.

In our small family-sized homes of three children, the role of Children’s Support Worker is to provide safety, support, care and guidance at an important time in their young lives.

What makes us different?
- We make a house a home. Each of our homes looks just like a regular family house. You’ll be part of a team that has a generous budget devoted to decorating the home and taking part in regular activities, days out and quality experiences for the children.
- Therapeutic care. You’ll receive training (both external and alongside our talented in-house therapy team) to provide the best support for the children in your home.
- UK-leading pay scales and career progression. Our starting salary is £12 per hour. The role also includes three sleep-ins per week at £60 per sleep, meaning that you could earn £30,000 per year. We also have a rolling rota system meaning that your days on shift and your days off will often be consecutive, making it easier for you.

Perks, rewards and benefits
- 28 days paid annual leave
- Staff pension scheme
- Staff loyalty and long service scheme which includes increase in pay and extra annual leave days.
- Regular team building days, parties, meals and more
- Complimentary health and wellbeing support with our employee assistance programme

It’s incredibly rewarding.
