We’re looking for a skilled support worker to empower our thirteen-year-old daughter to live independently and actively. This is not a “do-it-for-her” role—you’ll help her participate in everyday life, stay active, and follow her home therapy program, while supporting personal care, learning, social activities, and daily routines.
We need someone with:
• Experience working with children or adults with disabilities, including physical transfers
• A focus on independence and skill-building, not just completing tasks
• Reliable transport to work and full driver’s license
• Commitment to providing consistent support
• Day-to-Day Responsibilities & Opportunities:
• Facilitating engaging play and social interaction with peers
• Supporting learning and homework within her school program
• Encouraging independence with personal care and daily routines
• Implementing and supporting her home therapy program to keep her active and developing skills
• Promoting fitness and participation in age-appropriate activities
• Supporting organisation and decision-making, helping her make choices
• Working collaboratively as part of a team with parents and other professionals
What we offer:
• Flexible hours: evenings and weekends
• Hands-on experience in disability support, child development, and health
• Support to gain NZQA Level 4 Health & Wellbeing certification, fees-free
• A fun, creative, and supportive environment where your ideas are welcome
If you’re energetic, patient, and passionate about helping someone thrive, this is the role for you.
Please Note: Female applicants only, per s27 Human Rights Act 1993.
