Pro Social Partners are proud to be working in partnership with North Star Children's Homes to recruit a Residential Support Worker for their residential children's home in the Leatherhead area of Surrey.
North Star is a growing residential childcare provider supporting children with emotional and behavioural difficulties, and this role is at the heart of daily life in the home: a consistent, caring adult who helps children feel safe and thrive. The home is a settled one with an established staff team, so you would be joining a group of people who already know the children well.
The Role
- Provide day-to-day care, structure, and positive role modelling for the children in the home.
- Support children with school, activities, life skills, and community time.
- Contribute to key working, care plans, risk assessments, and daily records.
- Work alongside a close-knit team to keep the home safe, warm, and nurturing.
- Work a mixed shift pattern across mornings, afternoons, and full days, with on average one weekend off in three.
You will be a caring and resilient person with:
About You
- A Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare or above (essential).
- Experience supporting children or young people, ideally in a residential setting.
- A calm, patient approach to children who have experienced trauma.
- The reliability and teamwork a children's home depends on.
Why North Star Children's Homes?
- Competitive pay of up to £15.50 per hour plus £60 per sleep-in.
- 240 hours holiday per year.
- A growing provider with genuine progression into senior and management roles.
- Supportive leadership and a stable, child-centred culture.
