I am originally from the UK, and I have been in Australia for around 6 months. I feel very lucky to have the opportunity to work in such a beautiful country. My background is in early years, and I have been working with children since 2016 in various capacities. I am a bubbly, empathetic, caring individual, and I have a nurturing, enthusiastic approach to working with children. I like to create a positive, and calming environment for children to learn and grow within. I have worked as a teaching assistant with a child with additional needs, this gave me a lot of experience with adaptability and emphasised the need for a flexible approach to learning. I have been an au pair for three different families, working with children aged 6 months, up to 4 years old. I have cared for multiple children at one time, including caring for twins. I believe understanding the child’s routine within the home is a crucial part of helping families with their day to day lives. As I have volunteered for a family based charity, I understand how important it can be to have people to support families, especially in the early years. I have a wide range of skills, and I am eager to put them into practice. I have a strong work ethic, kindness, patience, and a strong passion for working with children. I am currently working as a barista part time, and i am looking to pick up occasional nanny/babysitting work.

I am not only confident but I am also very outgoing ,kind and have always had a positive work ethic attitude. I have been in Australia for around 1.5 years, based in Melbourne. I was an Au Pair for about a year, taking care of twin girls starting age 9 months and a little boy who was 4. I created such an amazing bond with them and love them so much that I see them as my nephew and nieces. This shows how loving and caring I am and i would absolutely love to the same for your children. I am a child of 11, but also the youngest so I have many nieces and nephews who I absolutely adore. My niece and nephews range from 1 to 18 years old so I love being a big kid who loves to play games and be silly with the younger ones but also be the best auntie I can by giving the older children advice on any questions that they may have. I am very strong headed so work well under stress which is a necessity when working with children as anything can happen at anytime. Over the years , I have developed multiple skills and abilities to help me perform my duties and i truly believe I would get along well with your children.
