Live-in caregivers needed for Christchurch and Oamaru Family Homes
Oranga Tamariki – Ministry for Children is looking for people who understand and have skills and experience with children and young people to move into our Family Homes in Christchurch and Oamaru.
We are looking for committed people to work alongside social workers to support young people in need of a safe and stable environment while being transitioned to permanent homes or independence. As a Family Home Carer you will create and provide that safe and stable home for up to five young people, whose stay could last anywhere from a few days to a few months. Couples are welcome to apply together.
You will live rent-free in a home owned by us, have general household costs covered, receive daily support, regular time off and will be remunerated for the young people you care for. One carer in each Family Home may undertake reasonable fulltime employment outside the Home. To be considered, you need to be a New Zealand citizen or resident.
