About
I have recently completed a Cert IV in Health & Leisure 2024. I enjoy helping people live an active, social and organised life. I enjoy spending time with people and assisting them to develop and plan their personal goals. Providing encouragement and the appropriate level of assistance to improve their independence and confidence. Art and craft, shopping, walking and exercise, social interaction, movies, animals, being outdoors in nature. I have life experience. I'm experienced being around individuals with disabilities, I have well managed ADHD myself, a now adult daughter who has ADHD and my brother with Bipolar Disorder. I had a serious bicycle accident 13 years ago which required multiple spinal surgeries and rehab to regain my ability to return to the workforce. I work casually at Coles and was a stay at home mum for 14 years. I have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel dog. I grew up in Western Australia and also lived in the Northern Territory for just over a decade. I have lived on the Gold Coast for 17 years.
