* Awareness of PICA, PEG feeding, epilepsy, and medical protocols
* Confidence working with wheelchair users and using hoisting equipment safely
* Someone calm, patient, and committed to providing dignified personal care
* A team player who can adapt quickly, follow care plans, and celebrate every small milestone

What's on offer:
* Term-time hours (school hours only - perfect for work-life balance)
