A Flatbush family are looking for someone to support their autistic 8 year old son. He loves bike riding, spend time at the playground and being outside. Your role would be to get him out of the house, burning off his energy and having some fun experiences.
To be the right person for this job you need to bring some energy, compassion and leadership skills to the role. His autism means he often communicates with his action more than his words, so you need to be the kind of person who is going to be engaged and active alongside him.
Ideally you would have a full drivers licence, a car and experience with kids or people with autism. You might want to work a few hours, or up to 25. The hours are all after school, in the weekends and as much as you want in the school holidays.
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

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
