Work With Us

Help children discover what they love, and what they can do.

SparkleSprouts coaches do meaningful work: 1:1 enrichment with children aged 7–12 with diverse learning needs, in their own homes. If that sounds like work worth doing, we’d love to hear from you.

Freelance Enrichment Coaches

    Take sessions that fit your schedule and your area.

  • Genuine impact

    1:1 work where you see a child grow session by session.

    Onboarding, session guides and a responsive team behind you.

Every programme is designed by our Head Coach, Vahini, a Special Education teacher with nearly a decade of experience.
