Hi there! I am currently 23 years old, living independently in Thornbury and have graduated from RMIT (2023) studying a Bachelor of Criminology and Psychology. I am currently looking for casual babysitting opportunities before I start looking for roles in my career (in 2025/2026). I have previously looked after a family with 3 children (aged 8-13, from Feb-Dec 2022), and I am currently nannying for a family with 2 kids aged 10 & 12 (January 2024-current).

My aspiration is to work in a counselling or case management setting that works with vulnerable families and youth/children. I have previously worked in a psychologist’s office where I assisted children with additional needs in their activities, and sat into occupational therapy sessions. I hope to bring the things I have learnt in this role with me!
