I come from an amazing Kenyan community where I've learnt about all kinds of human beings, learned how to cook amazing food and share it too. I would love to share my knowledge with other people and put a smile on their faces.

I have spent many years in customer service and have regularly babysat my whole life. I would love to pursue a long term career in Social/Support Work, and believe this would be the perfect opportunity for me to find my passion in life.
Tran
South Yarra, VIC
My parents were first-generation migrants who don't speak much English, so growing up I was the carer and advocator for my family. Helping others became second nature to me, and I felt a great sense of fulfilment in helping others.
River

I come from a childcare background so have plenty of experience being patient and having lots of fun. These life experiences among many others and my strong personal values have shaped who I am today and have well equipped me for any challenges I may encounter.
