Children’s Support Worker – Make a Real Difference

Are you passionate about helping children and young people reach their full potential? Join Paragon Social Care and be the steady, caring presence that truly makes an impact.

Who We Are

We provide 24/7 residential care for children in local authority care, creating safe, stable, and nurturing environments. Our mission: Excellence Through Understanding. Every child deserves to feel valued, supported, and hopeful — and you can be the person who makes that happen.

✨ What You’ll Be Doing

Deliver trauma-informed, compassionate care
Build trusting relationships and positive routines
Support education, life skills, and independence
Promote healthy lifestyles and prepare meals together
Advocate for young people and ensure their voices are heard
Support appointments, activities, and transport when required
Encourage confidence, resilience, and self-belief

Why Join Us?

This isn’t just a job — it’s your chance to be a consistent, positive presence in a young person’s life. We provide training, support, and career development to help you thrive.

Apply today and become the difference in a child’s story.

This role is subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check due to working with vulnerable young people. Safeguarding and promoting their welfare is a priority, and all applicants must share this commitment.

Requirements

What We’re Looking For

✔ Experience working with children or young people (paid or voluntary)
✔ A full UK driving licence and access to your own car
✔ Patience, empathy, and emotional resilience
✔ Flexibility to work waking nights, weekends, and sleep-ins
✔ A clear enhanced DBS (or willingness to obtain one)

A relevant qualification (such as NVQ Level 3 in Children’s Residential Care) is desirable but not essential — we’ll support the right people to grow.

Benefits

What You’ll Get

Excellent pay: £17.50 – £28 per hour (depending on shift type)

Extensive FREE training, including:

21 online learning modules
In-person training in safeguarding, trauma-informed care, positive behaviour support, and more

Clear career progression — Senior Support Worker and beyond

Great perks, including:

Flexible working patterns
Casual dress code
Company pension
Referral bonuses
