“I was very skeptical about leaving my old job but I’m so I glad I took the leap and applied for my position at Apollo. Best thing I ever did, I get to spend more time with my children and watch them grow. Everyone is so friendly and easy to approach if you have a problem.”

About This Role

A happy and content 10-year-old girl who is very independent and full of energy. She enjoys imaginative play, especially role-playing with her dolls house and play kitchen. She also has a real interest in make-up and nail polish, often enjoying creative play with these activities.

She loves spending time outdoors, including trips to the park, as well as shopping and attending school during the day.

You will support her in the things she enjoys, encourage her learning and development, and provide consistent, person-centred care.

Her care needs can be complex at times, so it is essential to always remain vigilant while ensuring she is safe, supported, and engaged. This is a highly rewarding role where you can make a real difference in her daily life.

Please note: Due to the nature of our vacancies, our clients have the right to request either female or male staff.

Our client has requested females only to join their care team.

“This isn't just a job – it’s your opportunity to make a real difference in someone’s life.”

Clinical Experience

Previous experience supporting children or young people with complex clinical needs is essential.

The specific clinical competencies required for our client are:

  • Tracheostomy care with children.
  • Ventilation management with children.

Essential Requirements

To be considered for this role, applicants must:

  • Have a minimum of 3 months' paid experience working in a professional care setting within the UK.
  • Have the right to work in the UK.
  • Be committed to delivering safe, compassionate and child-centred care.
  • Be willing to complete client-specific, clinical training where required.

We do not hold a sponsorship licence and are therefore unable to consider applicants requiring sponsorship.

About You

We're looking for someone who is:

  • Bubbly and Engaging
  • Caring, kind and compassionate
  • Patient and reliable
  • Friendly and engaging
  • Passionate about supporting children and young people
  • Able to build positive relations with children and their families
  • A strong communicator
  • A positive team player

Why Apollo?

At Apollo Home Healthcare, people are at the heart of everything we do. We're one of the UK's leading providers of specialist home healthcare, supporting babies, children, young people and adults with complex healthcare needs. We’re passionate about delivering high-quality, person-centred complex care that enables our clients to live safely, independently and comfortably in the place they call home.

We know that exceptional care starts with exceptional people. That's why we're committed to supporting our Healthcare Assistants through specialist training and ongoing clinical support. Whether you're joining us with previous complex care experience or looking to build on your existing skills, you'll be part of a compassionate team dedicated to making a positive difference every day.
