Hi! My name's Erika and I've always wanted to look after children and help others. With experience having 5 siblings, all younger, as well as studying a Bachelor of Primary Education, I've got the general qualifications and certifications down to be able to do my best! My passions generally are video games, so I'm sure I'll connect with all the current Minecraft movie jokes, both I also love painting and my current job which is working at an escape room place, heaps of fun! I'm a pretty patient and careful person, I am sensitive myself so I believe I'm best at acknowledging and adapting to unique behaviours and providing understanding and sympathy!!
Sadly I haven't experienced child care professionally, but I Have experience with my younger siblings as well as my current placement at a primary school to become a teacher! I hope, to work in OSHC or as a SSO eventually, perhaps next year, but otherwise I'm taking my approach towards teaching and working with children a little slow! I love working with kids, being involved in their creativity and positivity. I also love building relationships and being someone inspiring and trustworthy!
I have informally tutored my friends and family when it's urgent and needed as well as help the children I'm doing placement with, their education!
