Female Support Worker

About the role

We’re looking for caring, creative and fun support workers to work with wonderful twin sisters who each have their own unique personalities and interests. One sister is calm, social and loves all things girly. She enjoys relaxing pamper days at home, anything pink, and getting out into the community. Her twin is lively, chatty and full of creative energy. She loves painting, listening to music, and exploring new activities. They enjoy spending time apart doing their individual hobbies as well as coming together to watch TV, listen to music, and unwind. We’re looking for support workers who are patient, empathetic, and able to bring a sense of fun and creativity to each day. You’ll provide person-centred care at home and in the community, helping each sister engage in the activities they enjoy most and supporting them to build confidence, independence, and fulfilment.
