I have a heart to serve and not to be served. I am a people person and love listening and learning about other people's interests, goals and achievements. I also currently work with people that have no goals and I assist them to create and set a goal based on their interests. I work with people with all abilities to engage and prepare for further training or employment, some who are highly motivated and some who have no motivation. I was raised by my parents who cared for their elderly parents (my grandparents) whom never transitioned into nursing homes because in my culture we naturally care for our elderly. This enabled me to help my parents provide personal care especially when my grandfather had severe dementia and bathing/toileting/changing my grandmother. I have had many people compliment me and say that I wear my heart on my sleeve. that's because I genuinely care and when you genuinely care and action your tasks then the results follow. I believe that I would make a great Social Carer as I already do the role on a social basis in my local community that I have served for over 12 years but not realising that i could formalise what I already do on paid scale and make a difference in someone's life. Everyone that has come to me for help, I've done my best to try and help them the reward for me is to see them do well compared to when I first met them. ^& ^&I have no hesitations in sharing my Samoan language and cultural dancing skills with someone in the community. I could even take them to festivals that would have cultural dancing etc so they can experience a different culture. I am open to going for walks, nature walks, bush walks, beach walks, I am a member of Planet Fitness Gym Morayfield and I am allowed to take a visitor for free each time I train. I go to Living Waters Catholic Mass each Sunday 10am and I don't mind taking someone with me or accompany them to their preferred church service. I am open to going to the movies, bowling and any other activities.^&
