About family support worker jobs

Family support workers offer practical help and emotional support to parents who are experiencing short or long-term difficulties that affect their parenting skills and make their children vulnerable. They aim to avoid families being separated by helping parents regain their confidence and better manage their parenting.

Families are referred to family support workers by qualified social workers. They meet with families either in their own homes or at family assessment centres. Their role involves assessing the families’ needs to enable them to plan and deliver the right level of support. This may include working with a range of health and social care professionals.

If you’re looking for a job as a family support worker, you will need good assessment, analytical and planning skills. With its emphasis on children, the role is particularly suited to those from a nursery nurse background.
