Meet Joy Lees, Responsible Individual at Kidz Inc, which specialises in highly individualised care for children with complex needs and learning disabilities, including Autism and ADHD.
Joy and her team’s commitment to excellence was recently recognised with a win at the Learning Disabilities & Autism Awards 2024 for the Making a Difference category. This accolade is a tribute to the relentless dedication of both the children and their carers, who provide unwavering support around the clock, every day of the year.
Each placement is meticulously assessed and planned to ensure that every child’s needs are met and that transitions are handled smoothly but for the team at Kidz Inc, working with children and young people is far more than just a job. They feel incredibly fortunate to be part of these children’s lives, constantly learning from their bravery and strength. Every day brings something new, and the children’s resilience inspires and nourishes their spirits.
Kidz Inc believes that every child deserves to have the same hopes and dreams as their peers and should never miss out on opportunities for positive outcomes. They celebrate every achievement, no matter how small, and never miss a chance to throw a party and enjoy some cake!
Their approach ensures a secure environment where children can thrive, with access to personalised education and activities that prepare them for adulthood and smooth transitions. The children are actively involved in their local communities and are integral to the areas where they live. Each home is equipped with sensory spaces and gardens, all impeccably maintained.
This year alone, the children have raised funds for various charities and volunteered at local food banks, gaining invaluable real-world experience. Kidz Inc views the children as family, showering them with love and care every day as if they were their own. This deep affection is the heartbeat of Kidz Inc, extending to their devoted carers and the broader community.
Value-based recruitment is crucial to their approach, ensuring that carers receive comprehensive training, coaching, and reflective supervision to meet the ever-evolving needs of the children. Therapeutic care is embedded in their daily routine, with a focus on supporting children to reach their full potential.
Winning the National Award for Making a Difference is a proud moment for Kidz Inc, and they dedicate this honor to their exceptional carers and inspiring children.
