Meet Our Client

A cheerful and affectionate 4-year-old boy who lives at home with his family and their pet cat. He enjoys engaging with familiar adults and carers, loves listening to music, and feels happiest when close to others, finding comfort in plenty of cuddles.

As he begins his transition into school life, your support will be essential in helping him adjust to new routines, while maintaining the sense of security and happiness that enables him to flourish.

Our client has specifically requested female care staff to join their team.
