Te Whiwhinga mahi - The opportunity
Pūmotomoto is a service for pēpi and whānau in the first 2000 days of life (conception to 5 years). It is supported under the guidance of Te Oriori (an established service within Purapura Whetu Trust) and has been developed in response to the large body of research that highlights the period of life as the most critical for early brain development. It impacts lifelong health, wellbeing and social outcomes.
We are seeking a kaitautoko/support worker who wants to play an important and impactful role in supporting whānau and pēpi in the First 2000 days of their lives.

Mō mātou - Our Organisation
Purapura Whetu Trust empowers people to reach their full potential through personal growth, positive mental health and wellbeing. We embrace a Māori view of wellbeing and provide clinical and cultural support services to whānau in Ōtautahi.
Be a part of an ever-expanding service delivering support and programmes for parents, caregivers, whānau and tamariki. We are passionate about providing a service that enhances the mana of whānau through whakapapa korero (learning pathways) and the sharing of taonga tuku iho (gifts handed down through whānau).
