About JMC Kids Place & Our Mission

JMC Kids Place is a specialized, 24/7 emergency and temporary stabilization home for up to five young women (ages 11–17). The youth in our care have experienced severe trauma, abuse, or neglect. Our core objective is to provide an immediate, deeply secure, and emotionally stable environment to help them pause, reset, and heal.

We are seeking mature, patient, and highly resilient care professionals—including experienced nannies, foster care advocates, educators, and behavioral health workers—who want to transition their childcare skills into meaningful, trauma-informed crisis intervention.

Why Join Our Program?

Small Residential Environment: Ensuring you can focus on safety, relational boundaries, and intentional care.
Paid Professional Training: We fully fund your orientation and provide ongoing training in behavioral management, crisis de-escalation, and medical/documentation tracking.
Collaborative Team Structure: You are never isolated. Work alongside a dedicated program manager and a supportive peer team.

What You Will Do (Key Responsibilities)

As a Youth Care Worker, you handle the day-to-day therapeutic operations of the house, maintaining absolute safety and a predictable routine:

Supervision & Safety: Maintain strict auditory and visual line-of-sight monitoring of the youth to preserve an emotionally and physically safe atmosphere.
Behavioral Support & De-Escalation: Assess adolescent behaviors with high empathy and self-control, effectively utilizing learned de-escalation techniques when a youth is in distress.
Daily Milieu Operations: Support youth through structured activities, educational schoolwork, life skills coaching, and daily household chores (including meal preparation monitoring and cleanliness).
Intake, Discharge & Logistics: Conduct program orientations for newly arriving youth, manage secure medication dispensing, and safely transport residents to external community activities or appointments.
Clinical Documentation: Accurately chart daily shift logs, track behavior data, and write clear informational/incident reports in compliance with state regulations.

Who You Are (Minimum Qualifications)

Age & Education: Must be at least 21 years of age (or 18–21 if currently enrolled in an accredited, supervised Bachelor's program in human services, social work) with a High School Diploma or GED.
Experience Baseline: Minimum of 1 year of documented experience caring for children or teens. We strongly welcome backgrounds in professional nannying, para-educators, foster care support, specialized education, juvenile justice, or youth shelter care.
The Right Mindset: High emotional regulation, strong boundaries, an adaptable work ethic, and the ability to think fast on your feet during stressful moments.
Clearances & Credentials: Ability to pass a background registry check and pre-employment drug screen. Must have a valid driver’s license with auto insurance and reliable transportation.
Physical Capacity: Ability to navigate a 2-story home with stairs, lift up to 25 lbs., and remain entirely alert and awake during overnight shifts.
Certifications: First Aid/CPR and HIV/Bloodborne Pathogens training (or willingness to complete within 30 days of hiring—paid by the company).

Pay: From $20.00 per hour

Benefits:

Mileage reimbursement
Professional development assistance

Education:
