Meet Corey: A nanny and babysitter in Chandler, QLD

Hello, my name is Corey. I am studying for a Bachelor of Behavioural Science at QUT and aim to continue with my honours and master's in children psychology. Since June 2024, I have worked as a receptionist at Ramsay Psychology and previously worked as an admin assistant for McInnes Wilson Lawyers for one year. Moreover, I have been a disability support volunteer at Empower Autism since September 2024; this is a weekly 3-hour social event on a Thursday. In this role, I act as a facilitator amongst the group aged 12 -19 and provide a safe space and social environment for them to interact; we do board games, social outings, quizzes, dance, and more. I have gained experience working with children’s checks and disability support services checks from this role. I am very passionate, outgoing and warm person, but I am mindful of different needs for different presentations of autism and neurodivergence. I have a brother with autism and ADHD, so my experience in communicating with neurodivergent children and teens is efficient. At the moment, I drive my brother to school and back and get paid with his NDIS funding.
