Registered Manager - Jarvis House Create Safety. Build Belonging. Help Children Grow. Barnardo's is looking for a compassionate, values driven Registered Manager to lead Jarvis House, a small, nurturing residential home supporting children at a time when safety, stability, and kindness matter most. Jarvis House supports up to three children through short to medium term placements, including emergency admissions when no suitable alternative is immediately available. It offers a therapeutic, trauma informed environment where children can begin to feel safer, happier, healthier, and more hopeful, and where they are supported to heal, grow, and thrive. This is not just about running a home. It's about creating a calm, structured space where relationships come first, experiences are understood with compassion, and children are supported to prepare for what comes next. What Jarvis House Offers Children Each child's time at Jarvis House is shaped by a sensitive, holistic assessment that helps us understand their experiences, strengths, and needs. Our team works closely with children to help them recover from trauma, build emotional resilience, and develop vital life skills. When children move on, whether to a foster family, a longer term placement, or back home, they do so with stronger foundations and greater confidence in themselves. As one colleague put it: "Jarvis House gives children breathing space. We slow things down, really listen, and help them believe in themselves again."

Registered Manager - Jarvis House Create Safety. Build Belonging. Help Children Grow. Barnardo's is looking for a compassionate, values driven Registered Manager to lead Jarvis House, a small, nurturing residential home supporting children at a time when safety, stability, and kindness matter most. Jarvis House supports up to three children through short to medium term placements, including emergency admissions when no suitable alternative is immediately available. It offers a therapeutic, trauma informed environment where children can begin to feel safer, happier, healthier, and more hopeful, and where they are supported to heal, grow, and thrive. This is not just about running a home. It's about creating a calm, structured space where relationships come first, experiences are understood with compassion, and children are supported to prepare for what comes next. What Jarvis House Offers Children Each child's time at Jarvis House is shaped by a sensitive, holistic assessment that helps us understand their experiences, strengths, and needs. Our team works closely with children to help them recover from trauma, build emotional resilience, and develop vital life skills. When children move on, whether to a foster family, a longer term placement, or back home, they do so with stronger foundations and greater confidence in themselves.
