Your new opportunity 

At Countryview Short Breaks Service, we provide high-quality short breaks for children and young people with disabilities, creating a space where they can relax, have fun, build independence and spend time with others.

Our service is more than just a place to stay - it’s somewhere children build familiarity, confidence and positive memories. Many return again and again, forming relationships and enjoying their time in a safe, homely and supportive environment.

As a Nightshift Intensive Support Practitioner, you’ll play a key role in making this experience consistent and reassuring through the night - ensuring children feel safe, settled and supported.

We are offering part time contracts 22 or 33 hours per week. Paying an houlry enhanced rate of £16 between midnight and 7am. Hourly day rate is £15.02 per hour.

This includes:

  • Creating a warm, calm and homely environment overnight
  • Supporting children with medical, personal care and wellbeing needs
  • Responding sensitively to anxieties or distressed behaviours during the night
  • Monitoring wellbeing and promoting rest and comfort
  • Recording information clearly and respectfully

What we’re looking for

  • Have the skills and qualifications to support children and young people in care, residential or community settings
  • Take a trauma-informed, person-centred approach
  • Are calm, patient and confident supporting during quieter, more vulnerable time
  • Can work collectively and collaboratively with other staff on nightshift
  • Are committed to delivering consistent, high-quality care
