Weekends of fun with a disabled teenager

Ainsley Darvell from Flying Kites - West Auckland

• Are you a bubbly, happy, caring support person?
• Physically fit
• Saturday or Sundays in Millwater

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

Flying Kites helps people with disabilities find amazing people to support them to live their lives and achieve their dreams. #FlyingkitesNZ
