What will you be doing?
Your role will aid in delivering support to children and young people through meeting their personal needs and plans. However, you may at times be required to work with the families for additional support. Often 1:1 or 2:1 support may be required where you will receive a full comprehensive overview of the individual(s) you're supporting to provide the best care. In addition, you will be providing emotional support and companionship and therefore require these transferable skills.
Ideally, you will need to be a driver with access to your own vehicle; however, this is not essential. You can expand your experience and skill set with all the FREE training we provide in addition to the opportunity to work with a wide range of clients such as those with learning disabilities, mental health issues, homelessness, etc. There's no fee to attend the training and no fee for you to obtain your certificates - we're passionate about investing in you!
