Hi my name is chantelle im 24 years old i have recently completed my diploma of nursing and looking for work. im caring, kind, confident and loyal looking forward to talking to you all chantelle

Aside from being a housewife and parent to my two boys (aged 10 and 13), I do a lot of volunteer work at their school. I　finished Certificate IV in School Based Education Support. However, I do still have some spare time while my kids are at school, and I would love to spend it helping other mums who are having a hard time. I am very caring, patient, friendly and energetic. I don't like the idea of kids using screens, especially when they are at a young age, and so I've learned to be very creative and flexible when playing with kids. I also love cooking and housework and I am very good at them!

I’m outgoing, enthusiastic and personable. I’m a people person and love hanging out with kids (doesn’t even feel like I’m working). I have experience with children and they always love having me around. I have experience with cleaning, cooking and have a car for pick ups and drop offs.

Thanks for reading this. I've completed a Health Sciences degree, and also a Diploma in Community Services in June 2018 and since then I have had 7.5 years experience working at a not-for-profit organisation facilitating playgroups for families from newly arrived refugee and migrant backgrounds. Within this role I also completed case work and facilitated a homework program and children's holiday programs for primary school aged children. I additionally have a total of 5 years experience as a nanny across two families, one family with 3 children and another family with 2 children. I have 6 months experience as a Youth Worker (middle years) at a local council. I have a valid first aid certificate, working with children's check, police check, a full driver's license and a car. I prioritise safety and I really enjoy working with families and children of all ages. I have a passion for the health and wellbeing of children and have really enjoyed seeing children grow over time. I'd love to hear from you!

Hi all! I’m Tilly (24) a psychology living in Northcote (studying online). I am currently working casually as an Allied Health Assistant at a Kids Therapy Hub where we engage with groups in strengths-based play and more, using neurodiversity-affirming practice. I hold a Working With Children Check, National Police Check, Bronze Life Saving Medallion, Child Safety & Wellbeing training, a Full Victorian Drivers' License (clean record) and a 5 seater car. I am happy and capable to assist with homework, music practise or provide tutoring. I can provide references upon request. I bring engaging and flexible care, drawing off my own hobbies, like crafts, cooking, music, outdoor play, and imaginative games — while keeping routines calm and consistent. I’m a good home cook and can happily do meals for kids and families, can also very easily cater to diet restrictions and allergies. Around the home I very rarely need instruction and am a great multitasker so always happy to help however I can - cleaning, dishes, laundry, pickups, meal pre, washing, cooking planned outings - you name it :) I study online, so my schedule is very flexible and can often help with short notice. I’m calm, punctual, and solutions-focused, the result of a plethora of academic, life and work and experience (including management). Please reach out if you'd like to chat! Cheers - Tilly :)
