I've always found myself most passionate when caring for others; whether it be plants, animals, or people! I love all things outdoors and exploring the natural world around us, but I can also never pass up a cosy night in with candles, paints and hot chocolate. I started my caring career 3 years ago through a traineeship, earning my Cert III in Early Childhood Education and Care. Throughout this time I built strong, trusting relationships with families and I begun to babysit and care for a large number of those families at their residence as well. As comes with this work, I have repeatedly trained and renewed my training in areas including first aid/CPR, anaphylaxis, food safety, and child protection. With 3 years of experience caring and working with children under my belt, I'm very confident in my ability to care for another person's (or 4!) physical and mental wellbeing over long periods of time. I have experience creating engaging, stimulating activities which capture the attention of others, and finding ways to turn learning experiences into something thrilling that people want to be a part of. Socially, I'm a butterfly myself, and I get a lot of my own energy from being around others and engaging in the world around us. I have always been really proud of my patience and ability to connect with people going through extreme emotional highs or lows. ^& ^&I'm a bit geeky with technology, and I've always loved homing in on those skills to teach others. I've always been everyone's go-to girl when they need help figuring out why their computer is being unkind to them, and I really enjoy giving people their "I fixed it/I did it!" moment. I find that with most of my other hobbies/skills, getting others involved is a lot less about the activity itself, and a lot more about the company it's with or the feeling it's giving them. Painting, for example, isn't about how skilled you are, it's about expression and fun and releasing your energy. I've always aspired to be the type of person who can turn watching paint dry into an exciting occasion.^&
