Children's residential care careers

Social care roles with children

Become a role model and make a difference in the lives of children in Hampshire.

Do you love working with children and young people? We run nine residential children’s homes across Hampshire and our Children’s Home Support Workers are equipped with the skills and knowledge to care for the children in our care, focusing on each child's strengths to help them achieve positive outcomes.

If you...

  • feel passionate about improving the lives of children who have experienced trauma within their childhoods
  • can easily form positive relationships with children who struggle to trust adults or their wider support network
  • want to learn how to respond to challenging behaviours in a positive, strength-based way, or feel confident in doing so
  • show great resilience and determination
  • feel physically fit enough to be able to participate in activities with children
  • have good literacy, numeracy and IT skills
  • wish to pursue a level 3 qualification in Children’s Residential Care or hold one

…then you could be just who we’re looking for.
