Hi@cupcake1
Welcome to the online community!
The best advice I can give you is to look at all your transferable skills and life experiences and see how they match the requirements for jobs where you will work with disabled children.
If nothing else, working for Remploy could have given you a lot of experience of disabilities, so that's a start.
Next step is to look at areas where you can improve.
Does your CV need editing?
Would you benefit from mock interviews?
Are you confident in your job searches?
Think about what you have to offer and what you can improve on and you should be well on your way.
If you feel that you could benefit from support from Support to work you can take a look at the eligibility criteria and perhaps register for support at;

I wish you all the best!
Kind regards
