Travel Information
Hi, my name is Melissa, I have worked in Social Services for over 25 years. During this time, I have worked in various roles supporting both adults and children with different needs from parenting, behaviour, support with WINZ, respite, housing, advocacy and mental health etc.
I have also run various groups and coordinated meetings for families which I have also really enjoyed.
My passion is in supporting families by opening up trusting dialogues, walking alongside whÄnau/families and exploring their strengths.
Outside of work I live by the beach which is great as I really enjoy walking and swimming. I have two grown up girls and am married, I recently also became a Nan which has been the best thing ever! đ
