“I was very skeptical about leaving my old job but I’m so I glad I took the leap and applied for my position at Apollo. Best thing I ever did, I get to spend more time with my children and watch them grow. Everyone is so friendly and easy to approach if you have a problem.”
About This Role
We’re excited to be launching a brand-new package of care and are looking for caring, reliable and enthusiastic Nursery Nurses to support a 2-year-old girl with complex care needs in her own home in the Skelmersdale area.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a new care team from the very beginning, providing compassionate, person-centred 1:1 support and helping create a safe, stimulating and nurturing environment where she can learn, develop and enjoy her day.
The role will involve supporting her with her daily routines, personal care, activities and development, while providing reassurance, companionship and helping to promote her overall comfort and wellbeing. You will follow her individual care plan and work closely with her family and the wider care team.
This is also a great opportunity for Nursery Nurses looking to upskill and develop their clinical knowledge and experience, with the opportunity to receive training and gain confidence supporting a child with complex clinical needs.
We’re looking for Nursery Nurses who are caring, patient, reliable and passionate about supporting children to learn, develop and thrive.
Please note: Due to the nature of our vacancies, our clients have the right to request either female or male staff.
Our client’s family have specifically requested female care staff to join their team.
