Looking for a new career in 2026? If you’re searching for work that’s meaningful, people‑focused, and genuinely rewarding, a role as a Children’s Residential Support Worker could be the change you’re looking for.
At Prosperity Children’s Services, our Residential Support Workers play a vital role in supporting young people through everyday moments, helping them feel safe, valued, and empowered to thrive.
A Role Where No Two Days Are the Same
Life in a children’s residential home is dynamic. Each day brings new challenges, achievements, and moments of connection. As a Residential Support Worker, your shifts are built around consistency, care, and compassion.
Mornings often begin by supporting young people with their routines, helping them feel settled, confident, and ready for the day ahead. This could include preparing breakfast together, talking through plans, or offering reassurance after a difficult night. These small, everyday interactions form the foundation of trust.
Supporting Young People to Grow
Throughout the day, Residential Support Workers support young people with:
- Education and school routines
- Activities and hobbies
- Appointments and meetings
- Developing independence and life skills
Just as important is being there to listen. Some days can be challenging, but they are balanced by moments of real achievement, seeing a young person succeed at something they once found difficult, or knowing you’re the person they trust when they need support most.
Making a Difference That Matters
By the end of a shift, you might feel tired, but you’ll also know you’ve made a genuine difference. Being a Children’s Residential Support Worker isn’t just a job. It’s a role where compassion, resilience, and teamwork come together to change lives.
At Prosperity, we don’t just support young people, we help them thrive.
A Day in the Role – From Our Team
“No two days are ever the same as a Residential Support Worker, and that’s what makes the role so rewarding. Whether it’s helping with morning routines, supporting education, or simply being there to listen, the small moments matter just as much as the big ones. Even on challenging days, knowing you’ve made a difference makes it all worthwhile.”
