We do things differently. At SENNIES, you're more than just a placement, you’re part of a supportive community that values your skills, experience, and wellbeing. From thoughtful matching to ongoing training and check-ins, we’re here to help you thrive in your role.
Hourly gross rate ranges from £17 to £20 depending on the role and prior experience in SEN childcare.
If you possess specialised qualifications, we can negotiate a higher rate of up to £25 per hour gross with our families/clients.
Please keep in mind that many roles offer a salary increase after one year of service. The top end of the salary range in job descriptions reflects the potential growth rather than the initial offer.
Most roles are pro-rata and offer an annual salary based on your agreed hourly rate. We often support our families in calculating your working hours over the year (including school holidays hours if required) so you are paid the same amount each month but based on your agreed hourly rate.
You will work directly with a family/client and be encouraged to use your initiative and creativity to find ways to help the child(ren) you work with, to thrive within society, reach their full potential and build upon their independence.
SENNIES is run by experienced SEN Specialists, Nannies and advocates. We created SENNIES as a fair, supportive solution to SEN childcare for both families and our Super Sennies. At SENNIES we are here to support you throughout your placement and we aim to create a community of Sennies who can support each other.
The best child carers are always looking to further their skill set and knowledge, however finding the right SEN course, at a fair price, can be difficult without recommendation.
SENNIES now offers free online, accredited training for all of our registered and placed Sennies!
SENNIES have also partnered with SEN specialists to provide other incredible training.
