As a Residential Support Worker at our Children's Home in Llanelli, you’ll provide emotional support to our young people and help with day-to-day activities such as getting washed, dressed and out to school. If you are working a shift during the weekend, you will barely be on-site at the home because the fun is elsewhere think theme parks, bowling alleys, cinemas and zoos. You’ll have so much fun that you’ll almost forget you’re at work.
With the good times will come challenging times, with our homes accommodating young people with autism, learning difficulties, social, emotional and mental health needs. Although our Residential Support Workers tell us that the strong relationships and lasting memories that you create together will more than make up for these challenges. For them, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing a young person overcome difficulties and progress.
The home offers a holistic approach for the care of young people from the ages of 8 to 17 on admission. Through the care planning process an approximate decision of length of stay will be made which reflects the child’s needs.
Due to the nature of this role, a full UK driving licence is required.
