Hey Parents!!! I’ll keep this short and sweet - I have lived in Artarmon for over 10 years (meaning I know and LOVE the neighbourhood). I have been lucky enough to have been blessed with an amazing family, with my Mum and Dad teaching me and my 2 sisters (ages 12 and 19) what is right and wrong. Being that one of my sisters is 5 years younger then me, I have always felt extremely connected and protective over her and genuinely love spending time with her, which has taught me so much about childcare. I have volunteered at St Mary’s Primary School as part of my Duke of Ed program and have had experience nannying a 3 1/2 month old little boy and babysitting/nannying a family of 3 kids (aged 5 girl, 5 year old boy and seven year old boy). I also have experience nannying another family of ! I have my first aid and CPR Certification, my WWCC, my provisional (P2) drivers license and NSW Police check! I am currently studying Primary Education at Uni as well - I love this industry and want to dedicate my life to it. I am super fit and active (currently training for my first marathon), so I am always happy to kick a ball around and get outside or just chill, reading books and colouring in. I have a tiny bit of coaching experience (Netball and soccer), I love to learn and am eager to work. Look forward to hearing from you!
I find that the most rewarding part of childcare is seeing the looks on kids faces when they achieve something new, discover something or create something. As I have had experience in coaching a Soccer under 9’s girls team, I had the pleasure of seeing that look a lot when they got a goal or scored a hatrik or even dribbled the ball across the field. I have also taken care of a 4 month old boy, changing nappies, bedtimes, formula experience - which I found to be the most rewarding experience watching them grow so quickly. I have had alot of babysitting experience with a range of ages, both male and female, and love getting to know the kids personally as I hope to build a relationship and a level of trust between us all. I have experience in picking up and dropping off the kids to school, cooking dinners, shower time, story time, and bed time.
