Are you looking for more than just a job? Do you want to wake up each day knowing you're making a real difference to the lives of children who need it most?
We’re The Daffodil Project CIC – a new, heart-led inclusion initiative based in the Rainham Kent. We work with children who don’t thrive in traditional settings and give them something different. Something calmer. Something meaningful.
This is not your average role. It’s muddy boots and warm smiles, bottle-feeding pygmy goats, and laughing your way through the rain. It’s being part of a small, passionate team that genuinely cares.
Our days are filled with animal care, gardening, cooking, sensory activities, arts and crafts, creative play, speech and language groups, and social skills sessions. We’re a space for children to breathe, learn, and grow – and we need someone special to help us build it.
We’re looking for someone who’s ready to roll up their sleeves and get stuck in. Someone with a big heart, strong boundaries, and a love of animals. Someone who knows how to work with children with autism, ADHD, high anxiety or non-verbal needs, and wants to help them thrive.
You’ll need at least two years’ experience working with children with additional needs – whether that’s 1:1 or in small groups – and a calm, nurturing presence.
We want someone who can think on their feet, work well in a team, and bring creativity and care to everything they do. In return, we offer a supportive, down-to-earth working environment, a good work-life balance, career development, and the chance to be part of something truly unique.
This is a full-time role: Monday to Friday, 8.30am–4.30pm. starting 1 st September 2025 Must be 18 or over. Enhanced DBS required.
free tea and coffee, and lots of baked goods included– and a team that’s more like a family.
If this sounds like your kind of job – we’d love to hear from you.

Come and help us grow something truly special. Let’s change lives together.
