About Us
Prime Nurture Services is a leading provider of Residential Children's Homes, dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment for our Children. We support children and young people with Social, Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties (SEBD) and Learning Disabilities (LD). Along with all reputable care providers we are fully committed to improving the lives of children and young people in care by providing safe, nurturing, and therapeutic living environments. However, the overarching aim of Prime Nurture Services is to deliver nothing short of “Outstanding” care.
We are currently made up of 6 homes across the East Midlands and Essex, soon to be 7. As we continue to grow, the progression opportunities are fantastic! The opportunity to become a Senior, Deputy or Manager is great due to the way we love to promote from within the company. This helps to keep continuity for our homes, teams and most importantly our amazing children.
