Nanny / Support Worker (Part-Time) £19 per hour - Alderley Edge - SK9
Job Reference (4bca176b)
We’re a friendly, energetic family in Alderley Edge looking for a reliable, upbeat, and proactive nanny/support worker to join our team and support our 10-year-old son, Jack.
Jack has dyskinetic cerebral palsy and epilepsy and is a full-time wheelchair user. He’s non-verbal, but expressive, funny, and full of character. He’s currently learning to communicate using eye-gaze technology and absolutely loves being out and about on swings, swimming, bike rides on his adapted trike, and anything that feels like a proper childhood adventure.
This role is about helping Jack live life to the full, not just looking after him. We’re keen to find someone who brings energy, initiative, and a positive mindset, and who genuinely enjoys helping children experience the world.
You’ll be joining a warm, friendly household with a 5-year-old sibling, friendly dogs, and parents who value teamwork, openness, and a sense of humour.
The Role
Responsibilities will include:
- Supporting Jack with daily routines, including personal care (nappies and showering)
- Getting stuck into activities and outings — parks, swimming, sensory play, and days out
- Helping Jack engage with physiotherapy and speech therapy programmes in everyday life
- Preparing simple, healthy meals for the children
- Attending appointments and activities as needed
- Supporting family routines and being happy to pitch in where required
- Occasional travel and day trips with the family
Who we're looking for
You don’t need formal care experience — the right attitude matters far more. Experience with children, energy, and reliability are key.
We’d love to hear from you if you’re:
- Consistently reliable and take responsibility seriously
- Naturally positive, upbeat, and enthusiastic
- Proactive and able to use your initiative
- Patient, kind, and calm under pressure
- Organised and comfortable juggling different tasks
- A team player who enjoys working closely with a family
Essential Requirements
- Enhanced DBS check (or willingness to obtain one)
- Full, clean UK driving licence and access to your own car
- Right to work in the UK
- Willingness to travel with the family occasionally
