Caregivers Needed for 8-12 year old boy

Jan from Papanui

Caregivers needed for 8-12 year old boys in Christchurch

We are looking for a caregiver or caregivers in the Christchurch area for 8-12 year old boys who cannot live at home.

Can you invest time and energy to get alongside a child and support them to be the best they can be? We welcome enquiries from people from all walks of life with the skills to provide quality care. The most important thing is you can provide a safe, stable and loving home.

Caregiving can be a big challenge, but it comes with equally big rewards. You will receive support and financial help to meet the day-to-day expenses involved in looking after a child.

For more information please contact Dyanne Bensley on 03 963 2148 or Dyanne.Bensley@ot.govt.nz

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
