A family in Millwater are looking for someone to work either a Saturday or Sunday to support and spend time with their 16yr old disabled son.

This is a fun job for the right person. You need to be a kind and compassionate person who enjoys playing games and laughing at the things he laughs at. He loves trucks, lorries, and trains. He loves silliness, people who are bubbly, fun and funny. Spend your weekends on adventures to the zoo, the beach, Motat or places of interest.

His cerebral palsy means he needs physical help most of the time. Things like supporting him to walk, transferring him in and out of seating and chairs. Help to eat and drink and with personal cares. You need to be physically fit and energetic to give him the best support.

The weekend hours/days are flexible for about 7 hours on a Saturday or Sunday. You will need a car and a full licence. Pay is $24 - $30 per hour.

No experience necessary, just a genuine interest in being a great support and company for this young man.

If you are interested, please email jobs@flyingkites.org.nz or send me a message

Help to eat and drink and with personal cares. You need to be physically fit and energetic to give him the best support.



Weekends and school holidays will be more focused on trips/days out.



Two staff to work across the week from 3 –5pm after school and one day every second weekend (flexible) each day consisting of 7 hrs of support. More hours during the school holidays similar to weekend hours (7hrs). You will need a car and a full licence.

🌻Are you reliable, engaging and proactive?
🌻Are you looking for meaningful engaging work in Dairy Flat?
🌻Would 12 hour shifts supporting a man with a disability fit into your world?


A friendly, chatty man with a spinal injury is looking for some help throughout his week, especially in the weekends. He needs support workers to work 7am – 7pm and overnight 7pm – 7am and we are hoping that you might be one of those people! When at home he likes to spend his days with his cats and dog, making creations on his computer for screen printing and working on his online sales business.

For this to be the job for you, you need:
- A full NZ drivers licence – to head out to appointments or to get stuff done
- Patience - his injury means he needs to go at a slower pace sometimes
- Interpersonal skills - as he likes to chat with the person supporting him
You get a super gold star if you have some good computer skills, but this one is not essential.
Your role would be to support him getting up and dressed for the day, preparing and helping him to eat his meals, and doing the things his limited mobility prevents him from doing (like typing on the computer and pouring himself a drink). Someone stays awake with him overnight to help him stay comfortable and supported.

All of the shifts are 12 hours long. We especially need people who can work the weekend shifts. We would love to chat if one or a few 12 hour shifts would work in your world. One shift or a full time job, it is up to you.

If this sounds like the job you have been looking for, please email jobs@flyingkites.org.nz or send me a message
