Phoenix Learning & Care are looking for an experienced Senior Residential Support Worker to join the team in my home, and I wanted to share what that really means from my side of the story. Because someone like you could make all the difference in my world. Sometimes, life feels really hard. I’ve been through things that make me feel sad, angry, or confused. And sometimes, those big feelings come out in ways I can’t always control. On those days, I need someone who understands that I’m not being difficult, I’m just trying to cope. This job won’t always be easy. There will be tough moments, and I might test your patience. But when someone kind shows up, someone who listens, helps me feel safe, and makes me laugh, it’s like the sun comes out again. We don’t need superheroes. We need people who care. People who show up every day, even when we’re having a bad one. People who help us with homework, cook dinner with us, and play silly games. People who remind us we’re not alone and it’s okay to have fun and be a child. If you’re someone who’s good at helping others, who doesn’t give up easily, and who can make a house feel like a home, then maybe you’re the person we’ve been waiting for. You could be the one who helps us believe in ourselves again. We might not always say what we feel, but we notice everything. We notice when you’re patient. When you’re kind. When you care.
