Hi, I’m Christie! I’m a qualified teacher with over five years of experience working with children of all ages, including early learners and those needing a little extra support. I’m creative, patient, and love making learning fun through play and hands-on activities. I’ve also cared for my nieces and nephews from a young age, so I’m very comfortable with babies and toddlers. I’m available for babysitting, tutoring, or even helping out around the house. I enjoy cooking, cleaning, and keeping things organised. I also love helping older adults with everyday tasks and companionship. Families can count on me to be reliable, calm, and genuinely caring.
I have over five years of experience teaching students with diverse learning and developmental needs. My background includes supporting children with autism, communication delays, and behavioural challenges. I focus on creating calm, structured environments that help every child feel supported, confident, and capable.
I have been a classroom teacher since 2020, working with children across different ages and learning needs. Through my experience teaching in Schools for Specific Purposes within the NSW Department of Education, I’ve developed strong skills in supporting students with diverse developmental, behavioural, and communication needs. My role has focused on creating inclusive, nurturing, and engaging environments where every child can thrive. Alongside teaching, I have worked in childcare, supporting both educators and children with hands-on, play-based learning. I enjoy creating meaningful experiences that encourage exploration, creativity, and social connection. I’ve also supported children with additional needs, ensuring that each child feels safe, included, and confident. I’m now looking for more flexible work where I can continue to make a positive difference in children’s lives. I’m passionate about helping them learn, grow, and build confidence through care, play, and encouragement.
With over five years of professional experience as a Special Education teacher, I offer a unique blend of nurturing care and educational expertise for your family. I am not just a supervisor; I am a trained educator who understands how to connect with children of diverse abilities, behaviours, and communication styles. I specialise in differentiation, meaning I don't use a 'one-size-fits-all' approach. Instead, I adapt tasks to fit your child’s strengths, breaking down complex concepts to build their confidence and academic success. As a nanny and babysitter, this experience translates into patience and proactive care. I am skilled in managing routines, supporting emotional regulation, and engaging children in meaningful play rather than just watching from the sidelines. Whether you need structured homework support, specialized care for a child with additional needs, or simply a reliable and engaging role model, I bring professional standards and genuine warmth to every job. I am dedicated to creating a safe, inclusive environment where your child can thrive."
