Our Story

For more than five years we've worked alongside children's home providers, and we've listened. Managers told us what they need: staff who turn up, understand the environment and arrive with their compliance complete.

So we built the agency they wished existed.

We specialise in children's residential care, supplying experienced Residential Support Workers who understand safeguarding, professional boundaries and the realities of supporting vulnerable young people.

Every worker is carefully selected, thoroughly vetted and fully compliant before they're ever introduced to your home. No chasing paperwork, no second-guessing.

Because when you're responsible for keeping children safe, you should be able to trust whoever walks through the door.

Our Services

Last-minute sickness, annual leave, long-term vacancies or a new package of support: tell us what you need and we'll take it from there.

Why Us

Over five years, managers have told us what they need from an agency:

  • The right person, not just whoever is free.
  • Staff who understand children's residential care.
  • Shifts covered, just as promised.
  • Complete compliance, before the shift.
  • Someone who answers, at any hour.

That's exactly why ResiCare exists.

We build real relationships with the homes we work with, learn how each one runs and only introduce workers we'd trust with the young people in your care. If anything ever falls short, tell us and we'll act on it.

When your team needs support, we're there.

Day or night.

Safer Recruitment

Every worker completes our full safer recruitment process, including an interview, before they work a single shift.

Every Schedule 2 profile includes:

Complete employment history, with all gaps fully explored
Enhanced DBS with children's barred list, on the Update Service
Right to Work verification
Identity verification
Minimum of two professional references
Character reference
References from every care and position of trust role
Every reference verified, with a written record
Evidence where references genuinely cannot be obtained
11 mandatory training courses completed before any shift

Our documentation is in line with, and goes beyond, Schedule 2 of the Children's Homes Regulations 2015. We recheck every worker's compliance every six months, so the profile you receive is always current.
