Wellington Children And Youth Mentors

Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand Pridelands Full time
We are looking for mentors to be part of our childcare family here at Pride Lands

About us
Pride Lands is a childcare business, but we don't do babysitting.
We care about and for our tamariki and rangatahi.
Here at Pride Lands, we have a simple, clear vision:
"To help guide children through to adulthood, to help as many children as possible, and to provide this assistance anywhere it is needed, and to any age."

To realise this vision, we offer a range of before and after school care and school holiday programmes designed to nurture and provide support to children and their families.

While tamariki and rangatahi are at Pride Lands, we support and help them in any way that they need regardless of what that involves.

We specialise in helping all young people develop pride, respect, and a positive sense of their future.
We also work with young people in our communities that face the biggest challenges and are most at risk.
How we do this is a bit more complicated.
Moses who runs Pride Lands is a force of nature, and a child whisperer.

He can work with any child, intuitively knowing how to engage with them, gain their trust and give them what they need to develop and thrive.

More importantly, Pride Lands have been developing a process for teaching others to do what Moses does, but they need people with the right attitude and abilities to start with.

About you
18 years or up, you are any gender, or ethnicity, and any level of education, qualifications or experience.

Your main attribute is that you enjoy working with children and young people and find it easy communicate and engage with them.

You are happy joining in with children's games, laughing with others, and at yourself.
You are energetic, responsible, and innovative and happy to put our tamariki's needs before your own.

You want more than just a boring nine-to-five and love the idea of a job that makes a real difference to other people's lives.

You think you'd enjoy working for a small, locally owned company which treats its staff like family.

You want to work full or part time or casually, and are happy working in our childcare centres, at client's homes, at schools (primary/intermediate and college/high school), events and businesses across Wellington and the Hutt Valley.

You have or can pass a police check as a caregiver of children, and ideally have a first aid certificate and a full driver's license (though these aren't required).

The boring bits
You can find out more about Pride Lands on our website: or see what we do on our You Tube channel:
If this sounds like you, and we haven't scared you off, please apply.
There is an online application form at and you can email that, a CV and cover letter to

If you would rather apply in person, give us a call to arrange a time to come into our office and see us.

Be warned that if you come for an interview with us, it will be at one of our centres, full of happy kids playing fun (often LOUD) made-up games, and we'll expect you to join in

PLEASE NOTE:
You must be a NZ citizen/Resident or have a current Work Visa AND be in the Wellington area already for us to look at your application
