Join For Baby’s Sake in creating safer, healthier futures for babies and families.
We are looking for a compassionate and skilled Therapeutic Practitioner to deliver For Baby’s Sake across the North East of England. This is a home-based role with hybrid working, and applicants must be based in the region and able to travel to deliver a blend of online and face-to-face sessions. This is a meaningful opportunity to support families as they make lasting change during one of the most important stages of life.
For Baby’s Sake is an innovative, therapeutic, trauma-informed programme that works to break the cycle of domestic abuse, starting in pregnancy, to give babies the best possible start in life. We work individually with co-parents, keeping the baby at the centre, and using a therapeutic, recovery-focused framework to address the impact of domestic abuse with care, compassion, and respect. The programme supports parents to explore unresolved and often complex childhood trauma, change harmful patterns of behaviour, and create a home environment in which children can thrive. Our attachment-focused parenting approach helps babies and children feel safe, secure, and connected with parents who are emotionally available and attuned to their needs.
The programme begins during pregnancy, when motivation for change can be strongest. Both parents must want to co-parent their unborn baby, although they do not need to be in a relationship with one another. We can work with families until their baby reaches the age of two, reflecting the importance of this period in child development research.
The For Baby’s Sake Trust multi-disciplinary team is made up of trained therapeutic practitioners who build trusting, respectful relationships and create conditions for meaningful therapeutic change. This work supports co-parents to understand the impact of their own early experiences on their parenting and relationships, and to move towards safer, healthier family lives. To thrive in this role, you will have the skills to build therapeutic relationships, experience of safeguarding children and adults, knowledge of infant development, and a deep understanding of domestic abuse, attachment, and the effects of unresolved trauma.
Trauma-informed practice is at the heart of For Baby’s Sake. We have achieved Silver Accreditation for Trauma-Informed Practice with One Small Thing. We understand that trauma can shape an individual’s neurological, biological, psychological, and social development, and we are committed to responding in ways that are thoughtful, compassionate, and rooted in hope. In this role, you will help support the continued development of the programme while upholding the ethos, values, and integrity of The For Baby’s Sake Trust.
This is a full-time, permanent position. Full details, including the job description, person specification, and background briefing information, can be found in the relevant attachments. Occasional travel to locations across the UK will be required.
At The For Baby’s Sake Trust, we care about the wellbeing of our staff as well as the families we support. We offer flexible working arrangements, rest and reflect days, clinical supervision, and access to an Employee Assistance Programme.
If this opportunity feels like the right fit for you, we'd love to hear from you.
To apply, please submit your application form and an up-to-date CV via the 'Apply' button by midnight on 29 June 2026.
After submitting your application, you will receive an Equal Opportunities Monitoring Form. Completion of this form is voluntary, confidential, and separate from the selection process.
Interviews for the Therapeutic Practitioner role are scheduled to take place on 10 July 2026.
