Jennie’s Journey: From Support Worker to Leadership at Moorview Care
At Moorview Care, we love celebrating the growth and achievements of our incredible team members. Jennie’s journey is a shining example of dedication, passion, and career progression in social care.
From Support Worker to Leadership
Jennie’s journey began when she joined Moorview Care as a Support Worker. Coming from a different background, she wasn’t sure what to expect—but quickly realised that she had found her true calling. Over the years, she worked her way up, taking on new challenges, leading teams, and inspiring others along the way.
“I’m really, really pleased and happy and proud of myself and everything that we’ve done in Whitby.”
Stepping Outside Her Comfort Zone
A major milestone in Jennie’s journey was delivering her first-ever presentation—something that pushed her out of her comfort zone. “I had a presentation, which was a first for me. I practised at night while my husband was in bed because he’s a baker—he overheard me practising to myself!” 🎤 This moment was a huge step in her personal and professional growth, showing her determination to learn and succeed.
Mentoring & Supporting Others
One of Jennie’s biggest passions is developing and mentoring new team members. “One of my favourite things is developing somebody. Seeing them come through and progress—it’s amazing.” She finds immense joy in seeing colleagues grow, build confidence, and step into leadership roles themselves. Many of Moorview Care’s current team leaders started as support workers, and Jennie has been a key part of their journey.
What Makes This Work Special?
Beyond career progression, Jennie’s favorite part of her role is building trust and connections with the people she supports. “Spending time with them, and them trusting me to support them, is just one of the best things about this job.” Knowing that she is making a real difference in their lives is what makes this job so rewarding.
