MyCare

MyCare is an online and mobile marketplace for home-based services. Ideal for people wanting to organise their care needs independently. MyCare is connecting people needing support or care to a nationwide network of helping hands.

Who is looking for care or support on MyCare?

Anyone needing extra help or assistance at home. MyCare supports people in New Zealand to find, manage, and coordinate care for themselves or a family member. It could be personal care including showering and dressing or the everyday stuff, like help with the cleaning, shopping and cooking. Maybe it’s just some extra company and friendship.

Who are the care workers?

Anyone in New Zealand can register on MyCare as a care worker.

Many workers have joined MyCare after years of providing care for family members or friends, and their experience often includes raising their own families or caring for elderly parents. MyCare has a range of people offering care and support from qualified nurses and full-time care workers to parents looking for part-time work while their kids are at school.

We’ll ask workers to verify their contact details and complete safety checks including a Ministry of Justice background check. Thousands of workers across New Zealand have already registered with MyCare and are now able to find clients looking for home-based services in their communities.
