We live and work by the 6 Cs: Care, Compassion, Competence, Communication, Courage, and Commitment – and we’re looking for people who share those values.

Meet Our Client

Our client is a joyful and affectionate boy who brightens the lives of those around him. His love for water is unmistakable, whether he's happily splashing during bath time or delighting in a swim. Singing and engaging with sensory toys, especially those with buttons, bring him endless entertainment and stimulation. He enjoys school and looks forward to his daily taxi rides and car journeys. He also loves exploring the outdoors on walks with his care team. Your role will be to support him after school, engaging in therapeutic play, guiding his evening routine for restful sleep, and managing his clinical care needs with care and expertise.
