We will make contact to chat with you about the role, your goals, your skill base and competency and your personal characteristics. Don’t worry if you are new to support work, we provide full training and support
This involves looking at the best available opportunity to pair you with a client that matches your skill base, personality, and character
The training consists of completing the Health and Wellbeing levels. Level two can take 12 weeks, level three and level four can be both completed in 22 weeks each. It really does depend on the pace you wish to complete it at. One of the great things about the training is that you can work as a fully paid Support Worker while you are training. Many other industries such as early childcare or teaching require you to train for 3 to 4 years before you can even start earning money.

We really care about our employees and want to provide benefits that make being a part of tlc4u2 enjoyable and rewarding. We are currently developing a Wellness Program for tlc4u2 team members which will includes reduced costs for gym memberships, counselling services and budgeting services. We are also looking at offering group yoga classes and making a massage chair available for booking. The Wellness Programme will be an evolving initiative and we will be developing it in collaboration with our support workers.Another initiative we are working on is a points-based reward system. When support workers learn certain skill sets using our online training system, they will be given points that will accumulate as the support worker progresses. Support workers with points will go into a regular draw to win a mystery weekend away and other great rewards.
The pay is based on skill base and competency and ranges from $21.50 to $27 per hour, this is especially good when you factor in that you get to earn while you learn.
“I have been employed with tlc4u2 as a support worker for 4 years. In 2020 I gained my New Zealand Certificate in Health and Wellbeing Level 2. At present, I am proud to be studying for my Level 3 Certificate also in Health and Wellbeing.
Caring for and supporting clients in their own home requires understanding for their individual needs. As a support worker I like my clients to feel cared for and nurtured.
Outside of my job I am a mother of 4, with 5 grandchildren, 2 of which were born very prematurely at 27 weeks, yes twins -so I dedicate a lot of my time to helping and supporting my whānau.”
