Hello! My name is Emerson. I am 19 and graduated from St Leonard's College in 2023.
I have commenced study at Monash, doing a Primary and Secondary Education bachelors degree, specialising in health humanities. I am about to begin my second year of this degree and look forward to progressing my skills in child education and learning.
Throughout high school, I worked a casual job at an ice cream shop, Wills Batch, in Bentleigh which provided me with many valuable skills in which I have applied to past babysitting jobs including patience, organisation, communication skills and responsibility. I continue to work casual shifts here occasionally on weekends from time to time.
Additionally, I began my babysitting journey when I was 15, initially just caring for my young cousins which gave me experience with a range of age groups from 5-10 as well as gaining new jobs recently with children of various ages from 0-13 years old.
Since graduating highschool, I began working part time for a beautiful family with two children, aged 5 and 8. I have gotten to become a part of their daily lives, picking them up from school, cooking the whole family dinner, bath/shower time, and getting them ready for bed. Additionally, I assist with majority of the household washing, putting loads on, hanging washing on the line and folding/putting it away - for both the parents and children.
Sadly, I am having to move on from that family and am now searching for my next job!
Since I can remember, I have always been passionate about childcare and have wanted to become a teacher since I was a kid myself and would love to help out families requiring additional support, as I know how hard it can be to juggle it all!
I look forward to hearing from you ☺️
