Full job description

Children’s Play and Health Care Worker (0-2 Years Experience (Female Applicants only)

Must DRIVE & have OWN CAR. No visa Sponsorship available.

Due to the personal care needs and preferences of our clients, we are only able to consider female applicants for this role, in accordance with the Equality Act 2010 (Schedule 9, Part 1)

Location: Greater Manchester

Role Type: Variable

Hours: Part-Time & Full-Time

Hourly Rate: £12.71 day rate

At Lagan’s Foundation, we’re not your typical care provider. We work differently because children need different things.

As a Children’s Play and Healthcare Worker, you’ll join our vibrant internal care team, supporting children and young people aged 0–19 with a variety of health and developmental needs, in their own homes and communities. You’ll be there to play, engage, and care — not just provide personal support. We are in families’ homes for a minimum of two hours per visit, and during that time, we don’t just tick off tasks, we create joy, promote development, and build lasting memories for children who may have limited time.

This role isn’t about ticking care plans — it’s about creating moments that matter.

Use play to connect, support learning, development and emotional wellbeing

Actively contribute to meaningful, fun, and safe experiences

Provide high-quality care alongside play, including personal care where needed

Build trusted relationships with families and colleagues

Think on your feet and adapt to each child’s unique world

Attend regular team meetings, training, and supervision

Keep up-to-date records and contribute to excellent communication across the team

Take part in team bonding, training, and buddying new team members

Be a true ambassador of Lagan’s Foundation — we are one family

What Makes You a Good Fit?

We hire people, not just qualifications. We’re looking for individuals who naturally live our five values:

Passion – You care deeply about helping children thrive

Resilience – You can handle emotional situations with strength and grace and show up for the family and your colleagues

Integrity – You do the right thing, even when no one is watching and raise concerns if required Good Communication – You listen well, speak kindly, and work as part of a team

Empathy – You truly understand and connect with the children and families you support

In addition, you’ll need:

Experience working with children and young people

A love for play-based learning and interaction

Confidence to work independently and collaboratively

A full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle (with business insurance)

A willingness to work towards, or already hold, Level 3 Health & Social Care

Ideally, a qualification in childcare, play work, or similar and Level 2 Health and Social Care

A clear Enhanced DBS-Child & Adult

Eligibility Criteria

To apply for this role, you must:

Be a UK national, or

Have settled/pre-settled status, or

Hold Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) or Indefinite Leave to Enter (ILE)

Have been ordinarily resident in the UK or EEA for at least the past 3 years before the start of the role

Be aged 16 or over and not in full-time education

Have the right to work in the UK — we are unable to provide visa sponsorship for this role

Applicants who do not meet these criteria unfortunately cannot be considered.

Why Join Us?

Because we are a family we take care of our own. Here’s what you’ll get in return:

28 days holiday (FTE)

Pension scheme

Health Cash Plan (Hospital Saturday Fund) and Perkbox

Unlimited Counselling

Flexible benefits and salary sacrifice options

On-site parking where applicable

Ongoing training, professional development, and emotional support

Be You, With Us

At Lagan’s Foundation, we welcome you — all of you. We embrace diversity, celebrate individuality, and support every team member to grow. We’re proud to be a Disability Confident Committed employer, and we’re happy to talk about flexible working and any reasonable adjustments you may need.

Ready to Help Children Thrive Through Play?

If you want to bring light into the lives of children with complex needs, and you believe in the power of play, care, and connection — we want to hear from you.
