Supporting Young Lives Through Understanding and Care

At Paragon Social Care, we support children and young people through periods of uncertainty, transition, and change. We are seeking Children's Support Workers who believe in the power of understanding, compassion, and steady care - people who want their work to make a lasting difference.

This role isn't about routines alone. It's about being the calm presence. The trusted adult. The person who helps a young life feel safe enough to grow.

Who We Are

Our work is guided by a clear vision: Excellence Through Understanding.

Paragon Social Care provides 24/7 wraparound support for children and young people in local authority care, often during the most pivotal moments in their lives. We create environments that are safe, nurturing, and empowering, helping young people build confidence, resilience, and hope for the future.

The Role

There is no such thing as a "typical" day - but there is purpose in everyone.

As a Children's Support Worker, you may:

  • Offer trauma-informed care to ensure young people are safe and supported.
  • Build positive, trusting relationships that offer stability
  • Support daily routines, independence, and life skills
  • Assist with education, appointments, and meaningful activities
  • Prepare meals and encourage healthy living
  • Advocate for young people's voices and emotional wellbeing
  • Transport young people to appointments or activities using your own vehicle
  • Support each child to move forward with confidence and belief in themselves

Who We're Looking For

This role is well-suited to individuals who are:

  • Compassionate, patient, and emotionally resilient
  • Experienced in supporting children or young people (paid or voluntary)
  • Flexible to work varied shifts, including weekends, sleep-ins, and waking nights
  • Hold a full UK driving licence and have access to a car
  • Willing to undergo an enhanced DBS check

A relevant qualification (such as NVQ Level 3 in Children's Residential Care) is desirable but not essential. Full training and ongoing support are provided.

What We Offer

We believe that great care starts with well-supported people.

You will receive:

  • Competitive pay of £17.50 - £28.00 per hour, depending on shift type
  • Comprehensive training, including 21 online modules and in-person courses covering safeguarding, trauma-informed practice, PACE, and positive behaviour support
  • Clear career progression pathways into Senior Support Worker roles and beyond
  • Flexible working patterns (agency role)
  • Company pension
  • Referral bonuses
  • A supportive, values-driven organisation that invests in your development

Why Paragon Social Care

Because understanding changes outcomes. Because consistency builds trust. Because children remember who stayed.

If you are looking for a role where your presence truly matters - where care is led by understanding and purpose - we would welcome your application.

Apply today and take the first step towards a career that makes a genuine difference.

This post is subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check due to the nature of the role, which involves working with vulnerable young people. Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people is a priority, and all applicants will be expected to share this commitment.
