Use our search tool to find places where you were in the guardianship or care of others and learn who holds your records.
If you cannot find a place, prefer not to use the map, were adopted, in a foster family, or were with whānau or kin, you can also find out which organisation is likely to hold records about you on our list of record holders page.
Or try requesting your records from Oranga Tamariki. They hold the most records about children and young people.
If we have places missing or there are other issues please contact us.
