This could be your opportunity to change a life for the better
Swiis welcomes carers from all walks of life
Swiis welcomes carers from a variety of backgrounds including:
Single people
Couples (married and unmarried)
Same-sex couples
Homeowners and non-homeowners
Employed or un-employed
Parents and non-parents
People over 65.
By far the most important credential is your ability to listen, understand and provide a caring, stable environment for a child or young person. You will also need:
A spare room in your home
To ensure you are not signed off as medically unable to work
Enthusiasm, a positive outlook and empathy
Respect for individuality and diversity
Willingness to learn from your own and other people’s experiences and to attend regular training.
I have been with Swiis for 7 years now. They are the most supportive organisation I have ever come across. They really care.
