About


Reliable, dependable and here for you! Originally from Western Australia but have now lived and worked in Sydney for over 30 years. Before marriage and children I worked in film distribution, television, movie production, publishing, life coaching and sales training. Now, I work part-time for professional couples in supporting them with the transport and care of their school-age children, a role which I find fun and valuable to the parents. In my home I host overseas students of English and also international medical students who come to Sydney to do their electives at the Royal North Shore Hospital. It is a joy to meet these diverse and interesting students and provide them with a warm and safe base for their time in Sydney. One of my personal values is to support others on their journey in life.
