Greater access means that we are able to help more families with a range of professional and support services.It also means that we can be there for the children when they need us. It may be for one night because a parent is ill or it could be for long-term foster care. As always our focus is on the well being of the child. We don’t judge, we don’t discriminate, we’re there to help.Source: this is an extract from the company’s own website.

    AI summary of recent reviews

    Employees at Wanslea consistently praise their colleagues, describing them as lovely, kind, caring, and experienced professionals who create a supportive team environment. Staff appreciate the training opportunities provided, including paid training, workshops, and regular clinical supervision. The meaningful work with vulnerable families and children is valued, as is the opportunity to provide assistance to those in need. Additionally, compensation and benefits are competitive, with above award wages, yearly benefits, and generous team building activities.

    However, there are some potential challenges to consider. Management experiences can vary across different regions and locations, with some inconsistency noted. Staffing levels can be stretched, with high staff turnover contributing to workload pressures. Communication between staff and management could be enhanced, particularly in maintaining positive relationships with centre managers. The administrative workload can be substantial, with paperwork sometimes taking precedence over direct client work. Some employees have also noted that positive recognition of their work could be more frequent.
