About


I love working with people! I have a children, so I have had a lot of experience in lots of areas and especially love cooking and taking care of people. I was born in Canada and my first career was in nursing as a Registered Nurse and I later moved to Australia to work. I currently work in healthcare, specifically with progressive neurological disorders such as MND. It gives me a great sense of joy knowing that I have helped someone accomplish their goals and increase their quality of life. I know that everyone has a story and am interested to listen without judgement and meet and connect with different people. My current role is as an Allied Health Assistant - this role has given me so many skills around working with people who have disabilities. I would like to work 1-2 days a week as a Social Carer to round out my week and work in an area that gives me joy. I am also a first aid trainer so I am used to thinking on my feet and dealing with many varied personalities. ^& ^&I love Photography - one of the many skills I would love to share. Walking/Hiking - I have knowledge of many places to explore Cooking^&

Nicole is a special carer. She has natural caring abilities, is friendly, thoughtful and kind. She instinctively knows what to do and then does extra with such generosity. She is confident and considerate and does not need to be reminded about any jobs, she applies common sense to her duties and excels at everything she does here. I think she is wonderful.
