Would you be willing to provide short term support to a family in crisis, perhaps sit

with a parent overnight in hospital or call in to check on a child's wellbeing at the

weekend?

We are looking for caring, motivated and flexible people to join our team of casual

workers. You will work as part of both the Family Time Service and Out of Hours

Service, a team of creative, supportive and dedicated workers. You may undertake

welfare visits for families in the evening or on weekends, or support children at home

by providing supervision overnight or for shifts during the day. You might be asked to

provide supervision for a child in hospital or support a parent with their newborn baby

coming out of hospital. You will need great communication skills and a commitment

to working collaboratively with all professionals and above all to be kind when

families are in crisis. The hours will be flexible and may involve evenings and

weekends.
