A safe place for children and young people in Aotearoa to talk with a professional counsellor for free, about anything at all. No problem is too big or small. Phone (11am-11pm) and webchat (11am-10:30pms) options available, and you can ask for the same counsellor each time. Counsellors are specialised in listening to and working with children and young people, so you can trust them. 0800 What's Up is now also welcoming any callers who would have usually called Kidsline.
