I have been working as a babysitter/nanny since I was 13 years old! I have worked with a number of families, looking after babies, children, and teenagers. I have also worked as a boarding matron in Oxford in England, where I looked after boarders aged from 7-13. In this role, I helped the children with their daily routines and managed the washing and bed changing (sometimes for up to 50 kids - so much washing!) I currently work at a paediatric occupational therapy clinic one day a week. In this role, I work with young children aged from 0-12 with different diagnoses, including autism, ADHD, Down Syndrome, Achrondoplasia, and other behavioural/learning needs. I am studying a bachelor of occupational therapy part-time, with the intention of working with kids once I graduate. In addition to looking after your kids, I’m also happy to help with household chores, pets, homework, cooking, and anything else you might need! I have my full license and a car. I also have NSW police checks, WWCC, CPR & first aid, mental health first aid, NDIS disability workers check and references if you would like.
