We live and work by the 6 Cs: Care, Compassion, Competence, Communication, Courage, and Commitment – and we’re looking for people who share those values.

Meet Our Client

We are looking for caring and enthusiastic Healthcare Assistants to support a bright and joyful young girl on a 2:1 basis who thrives on interaction and has a warm, playful personality. She enjoys days out, trips to the cinema, and has a passion for music, especially Cocomelon and nursery rhymes.

You will also assist at home with getting ready in the morning and settling after school, while providing personal care, managing medication, and attending to her clinical needs to ensure she remains safe and comfortable.

During night shifts, you will closely monitor her, remain vigilant to her care needs, and ensure she is safe, comfortable, and supported throughout the night.

We are looking for someone patient, playful, and positive, with a genuine passion for helping children live full and enjoyable lives.
