About
Hi I'm Lesley, I'd like to share a little about myself to assist in your choice for the important support you need. I'm an active engaged member of the inner west community and I continue to look for opportunities to make a difference. I'm currently volunteering with Wayside Chapel in the retail op shop and cafe, and I spend every Monday morning supporting palliative care patients at Concord Hospital. Apart from volunteering work I am employed as a nanny to an energetic two year old where I take her on outings, arts and crafts, read her stories, prepare her meals and put her down for her naps. Outside of the above I'm an avid theatre going, love live music and I am in the local inner west community choir. But believe it or not, I still have spare time and I am looking for the opportunity to provide support in these areas:- -grocery shopping support -doctor and specialist appointment visits -meal planning and preparation -companionship for outings such exhibitions, theatre or movies -exercise support i.e. walking maybe via your local cafe for a coffee and a chat -light domestic duties -de cluttering and household organisation And just a little more about me, my career was in entertainment and casting, I've got two adult children whom I adore and I'm a really good cook with an interest in nutrition. In the past I have trained as an end of life doula, and have volunteered with Orange Sky, Oz Harvest and Black Dog institute. All of which has given a great insight into people, their needs and the importance of listening.
