Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

I consider myself someone who is a bubbly person that is goal-orientated and has an optimistic outlook on life. I have completed a Higher Certificate in Early Childhood Development and thoroughly enjoyed my practical assignments because I learned different methods of connecting with my students.

I am a reliable and nurturing professional with experience caring for children in both private and institutional settings. Adapt to creating and implementing engaging activities, preparing meals, and ensuring a safe, positive environment. Skilled in identifying and responding to the individual needs of children, providing comfort, guidance, and reassurance. Comfortable with Child related housekeeping, laundry, and errand running.

I enjoy travelling and trying new foods.
