Fun and meaningful part time work
Are you friendly, engaging and energetic?
Do you love to build connections?
Do you want a job that makes a real difference?
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
