About

Hi, I'm Lorraine (I prefer Rainey) I have a compassionate, empathetic and easygoing fun nature. I have always been passionate about helping others and have actively sought opportunities to volunteer my time and support to those who are vulnerable or marginalized. Through my experiences working with different groups of people, I have developed the necessary skills to provide effective and compassionate care. I possess strong communication and interpersonal skills, am an active listener and am able to establish a rapport with people from all walks of life. My ability to communicate effectively means that I can understand people's needs and concerns, and respond in a way that is appropriate and helpful. I am committed to continuous learning and development and always seek opportunities to improve my skills and knowledge. As a social carer, staying up-to-date with best practices and new developments in the field is important. I am always eager to learn from others and am open to feedback and constructive criticism. I have a great love of being out in nature. This can be as simple as pottering around in my garden, walking through the bush, camping, or just taking my dog for a walk on a beautiful blue sky morning. Happy to share this with others by organising a nature walk or hike in a local park or nature reserve. Another passion of mine is music and most days you will find me listening to music no matter what I am doing. I dabble in playing the guitar and last year also taught myself how to crochet.
