Prior to starting at Accalia care, I worked with children in Primary schools supporting children in the S.E.N department.
I began working for Accalia care in 2020 as a residential support worker and was enrolled onto my Level 3 NVQ working with children and young people in residential care, following this I was promoted to a senior support worker and was then given the support to progress further within the company moving up to Team Manager then a Home Manager at a different home within the company. This allowed me to gain practical experience of managing a children’s home and complete my Level 5 QCF.
I am now Registered Manager of a home and have achieved this in under 4 years, thanks to the support of the Directors and the management team.
