Make a Difference in a Child's Life

We are looking for compassionate, reliable, and attentive Healthcare Assistants to support a young child with complex healthcare needs in their family home.

This is a rewarding one-to-one role where you'll become part of a dedicated care team, helping provide specialist support that enables the child to remain safe, comfortable, and cared for at home.

This is not a domiciliary care role. You will work with a single client during your shift and will not travel between multiple homes.

About You

We are looking for individuals who are:

  • Caring, patient, and nurturing
  • Reliable and professional
  • Attentive to detail and proactive in their approach
  • Comfortable working independently within a supportive team
  • Passionate about providing high-quality care

Previous care experience is desirable, although candidates with transferable experience in childcare, nursery settings, education support, healthcare, or support work are encouraged to apply.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide person-centred support tailored to the child's needs
  • Assist with personal care and daily routines
  • Monitor wellbeing and report any concerns
  • Follow care plans and clinical guidance
  • Maintain accurate care records
  • Support the family in creating a safe and positive environment for the child

Benefits of Working with HFH

  • PAYE employment
  • Enhanced rates for weekends and bank holidays
  • Paid annual leave
  • Company pension scheme
  • Carer Recognition Scheme
  • Refer-a-Friend Bonus (£150 for Carers, £500 for Registered Nurses)
  • Free confidential wellbeing and support line
  • Blue Light Card discounts and savings

Why Join HFH?

  • Work with one client per shift
  • No travelling between multiple homes
  • Consistent work with a regular care team
  • Ongoing training and development opportunities
  • Supportive management and clinical teams
  • Flexible scheduling where possible

Earnings

Many of our carers work around 36 hours per week, typically earning £500–£555 per week*.

This equates to an estimated annual income of £26,200–£28,950* depending on shift patterns and hours worked.

Figures are based on average shift patterns and include accrued holiday pay. Actual earnings may vary.

If you are looking for a rewarding role supporting a child and their family while developing your healthcare career, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today.
