About Us At Aspire Care & Support, we believe every child deserves a safe, stable and loving home where they feel genuinely valued. Ashton House is a small, two-bed children's residential home in Hunts Cross, Liverpool, where we provide trauma-informed, relational care built on warmth, consistency and trust. We're not driven by targets or numbers — we're driven by doing right by the children in our care. Our approach is rooted in PACE (Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity and Empathy) and Motivational Interviewing techniques, underpinned by a genuinely non-judgemental, listening-led way of working. If that sounds like the kind of team you want to be part of, we'd love to hear from you. About the Role We're looking for a caring, resilient and dependable Residential Support Worker to join our small team at Ashton House. You'll provide day-to-day care, support and guidance to the children living with us, helping them feel safe, understood and able to thrive — whether that's through everyday routines, shared activities, or simply being a calm, consistent presence they can rely on. No two days are the same. You might be helping with homework, cooking dinner together, supporting a young person to a health appointment, or just being there for a chat. What matters most is that you bring patience, empathy and a genuine desire to make a positive difference.
