Volunteering: Twice a year I volunteer with disadvantaged Indigenous children and families on the Gold Coast and in Sydney, running activities and supporting their wellbeing. This June–July I also travelled to Bhaktapur, Nepal, where I taught health and wellbeing to a full class of primary-aged students. Study: I’ve completed 14 units of child psychology at Deakin University, which gives me a solid understanding of child development and behaviour. Qualifications and checks: First Aid and CPR, anaphylaxis training, Bronze Medallion (surf life saving), police check and a full driver’s licence. As a babysitter, I’m fully present with the children. I give them my undivided attention and encourage creativity and play so they’re never bored.
