Family Home Parents/Caregivers Needed

Jan from Papanui

Family Home Parents Needed


Live-in caregivers needed for local
Christchurch Family Homes
We are looking for people who understand and have skills with children and young people to move into one of our Christchurch Family Homes.
As a Family Home Carer you will create a safe and stable home environment for up to five young people transitioning to permanent homes or independence, whose stay could last anywhere from a few days to a few months.
You will live rent-free and have general household costs covered with regular time off. This opportunity allows for one ‘carer’ to undertake full-time employment.
You will be part of a team and receive support, professional training and on-going advice from a social worker.
Couples are welcome to apply together.


Foster caregivers needed for children and young people in Canterbury

We are looking for a caregiver or caregivers in the Canterbury area for children and young people from 0-18 years.

Many children requiring caregivers have had a tough start in life and at times can show some challenging behaviours. If you are in the position to offer a stable, nurturing home you will become part of a team. You will receive support, professional training, on-going advice and financial assistance and most importantly you will see how you have made a difference to a child or young person’s life.

Poll: Have we lost our "Clean & Green" edge? 🌏

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press just released an article on the proposed plan to pump sewage into the sea, and it’s got us thinking. We’ve always been proud of our environment, but is the "Clean and Green" reputation still earned?

What’s your take? Are we doing enough to look after our backyard? Is it time for a new slogan? 💬

🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?

(Susan from Massey kindly provided this head-scratcher ... thanks, Susan!)

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
