Our Night Autism Practitioners play a key role in supporting autistic young people with complex needs at Prior's Court to improve their sleep patterns and, together with the education and residential teams, in building their independence and life-skills.

Our night-time Autism Practitioners play a key role in supporting the young people we support to improve their sleep patterns and, together with the education and residential teams, in building their independence and life skills.
You will work through the night between 3 - 4 shifts a week to support the young people in undertaking their night-time routine, putting in place the structure and prompts to enable them to undertake tasks as independently as possible and to learn skills ranging from toileting, washing, dressing and personal care to communication and social skills.
Our thorough training and induction programme will ensure you have the support, skills and tools you need to deliver quality care for each young person. We will even support you to complete your HABC Level 3 Diploma for Residential Childcare (England) (RQF) if you are not yet qualified - a statutory requirement for a career in childcare.
This role is for night shifts only - we also have vacancies for day shifts.
Training, salary and career progression
For those who are not experienced in care, we offer a comprehensive, free training programme including hands-on working alongside experienced and senior team members, resulting in the completion of a Level 3 diploma – you will gain a salary increase upon completion of the Diploma (usually within your first 12 months) and become eligible for promotion to Autism Practitioner Level 2.
We have colleagues who completely changed their careers to come to work with us and now thoroughly enjoy how rewarding it can be to support the autistic young people at Prior's Court.
