Pediatric Personal Support Worker (PSW) - Kitchener

Why Join Our Team as a Pediatric Personal Support Worker?

If you enjoy building meaningful connections while working with pediatric clients in a home care environment, this position is for you.

We are looking for individuals who go above and beyond — those who aim to exceed expectations, not just meet them. Your role involves creating a safe and nurturing environment for yourself, the client, and the client’s family, providing peace, comfort, and balance within their home. You should value the support you offer and continuously seek opportunities to enhance the experience for your clients and their families.

As a Personal Support Worker with WeeCare, you will do more than provide medical care according to each client’s care plan. You will offer peace of mind, comfort, and become a trusted extension of the client’s family.
