Meet Our Client

We’re looking for a caring and supportive individual to work with a child who has a real passion for football.

During the day, he enjoys watching YouTube and listening to people explain how to play games like Pokémon, Fortnite, and Minecraft.

As part of his care team, you will be required to support with personal care, moving and handling and managing his clinical needs.

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