**Meet Our Client**
A 4-year-old girl who lives with her parents and sibling in Milton Keynes. She is a shy but gentle child who responds to touch and voice with smiles. As she cannot communicate her needs verbally, she benefits from a care team who are attentive, responsive, and compassionate. You’ll support her with physio, PEG management, medication, and personal care, while helping her enjoy the activities she loves, including swimming, music sessions, playtime, and bedtime stories.
She responds best to gentle interaction, reassurance, and a calm environment, particularly at night when she can sometimes become unsettled. You’ll offer comfort, assist with her bedtime routine and getting ready for school, observe her well being, and provide safe, effective interventions to promote rest and comfort.
**Candidates must have excellent communication skills and proved experience of working with young children.**
**Please note:** Due to the nature of our vacancies, our clients have the right to request either female or male staff. Our client has specifically requested female care staff to join their team.
“This isn't just a job – it’s your opportunity to make a real difference in someone’s life.”
