Maria - 25yrs

Hi mums and dads, my name is Ana, and I’m originally from Portugal, though I lived in England for a few years before moving to Sydney two years ago. I’m now in my third year of studying for my Bachelor of Early Childhood Education. Working with children runs in my family, my grandmother was a preschool teacher, and my mum owned and managed her own early childhood centre in Portugal. Growing up, I spent a lot of time learning from them, which inspired my own passion for working with kids. I began working with children at 16 and also gained experience in hospitality supervision and management, where I developed skills like organisation, problem-solving, and leadership that are incredibly helpful in my work today. I currently work in an early childhood centre, hold a First Aid certificate, and am also a qualified swim teacher. I’m a bubbly, down-to-earth person who loves life’s simple joys and focuses on being present in the moment. I’m determined, a quick learner, and highly organised, with a knack for solving problems efficiently. I believe working as a nanny in this amazing city would be a perfect fit for me, as I truly enjoy building strong connections with children and providing them with the best care and support possible.
