Stepping Stones has 40 years of experience working in North Edinburgh, supporting children and families through both one-to-one support and group work across community settings and in the home.

Our vision is that all families supported by Stepping Stones are enabled to live happy, healthy and fulfilling lives which support children to thrive.

We are currently recruiting for the role of Family Wellbeing Practitioner. The role is funded by National Lottery’s Young Start fund and Capital City Partnership's Network of Employability Support and Training fund. The post is funded until March 2028.

The role will focus on supporting parents' wellbeing, creating connections for families, and developing their aspirations and learning. This will be done primarily through group work delivery where you will create meaningful opportunities which are led by the parents' interests. Within the role you will also be expected to deliver one-to-one support where this is needed to help families achieve their goals.

The post-holder will work closely with the other staff to ensure families receive high quality support and equal access to learning and development opportunities. They will contribute to the broader events delivered by Stepping Stones, as well as networking with local agencies.
