Seeking a great mentor

Ainsley Darvell from Flying Kites - Kumeu

šŸŸ”Are you straight up, confident and fair?
šŸŸ”Are you looking for part time work in Ranui?
šŸŸ”Could you be a strong role model for a disabled teen?


If you consider yourself a sensible, reliable and calm person, then this could be the job for you. A teenage girl with a disability is looking for someone to help her fill her afternoons and weekends with meaningful, engaging activities. You might support her to head to the shops, join an afterschool activity or spend some time outdoors.

Her intellectual disability means that she needs someone with her to help her make safe decisions, but she is independent on most of her daily tasks. Your role will be to encourage her, set boundaries and make sure she is staying safe.
We need 10-14 hours of support each week, but we are open to afternoons, evenings and weekends depending on what will work best with your schedule and her commitments. You need to have a full driver licence and a car to be successful in this role. $24 - $30 per hour

If this sounds like the job you have been looking for, 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
