Our role is to support children to maintain safe connections with their birth families, helping them preserve a sense of identity, history and belonging, and to create positive memories, whether or not they eventually return home.

Sessions take place primarily within our dedicated Family Time venues located near children's foster placements. When risk reduces and progress allows, some sessions may move into the community.

As a Relief Family Time Worker, you will provide flexible cover to meet service demands. Current service needs require availability to work Monday to Friday, across both mornings and afternoons. Whilst hours are not guaranteed, flexibility is essential to support the delivery of sessions, some of which may continue until approximately 6pm.
