Are you passionate about making a difference in the lives of vulnerable young people? Do you have the resilience and empathy to support children with complex needs? If so, we want to hear from you.
We are working with an established and trusted care provider who are opening a new, purpose-driven residential home in Wallasey. The home is designed to meet the increasing demand for specialised support services for young people who display challenging behaviours as a result of trauma, neglect, or emotional and behavioural difficulties.
About the Role:
As a Children’s Support Worker, you’ll join a small, dedicated team committed to delivering trauma-informed care and person-centred support. This isn’t just a job — it’s a chance to become a stable, trusted figure in a child’s life, helping them heal, grow, and move forward.

Supporting emotional regulation and managing challenging behaviours calmly and consistently
*
Taking part in key-working sessions and supporting care plans
*
Supporting the home’s daily routines, including activities, school runs, and meal preparation
Shift Pattern:
You’ll work on a flexible rota that includes early shifts, late shifts, and regular sleep-ins. This allows for consistency and meaningful relationships to develop with the children in your care.
What We’re Looking For:
*
Experience working with children or young people (residential, education, youth work or similar)
*
A genuine passion for supporting young people with complex needs
*
Strong emotional resilience and excellent communication skills
*
Willingness to work flexibly, including weekends and sleep-ins
*

Be part of a new, specialist service backed by a long-standing and respected provider
