Meet Kodi: A nanny, babysitter, and au pair in Fairfield, VIC

Hi! My name is Kodi. I am 32 years old with over 10 years experience in teaching, mentoring and working with young people!

I love working with young people to nurture their unique expression, and guide them through their life in a strengths-based and trauma-informed approach. I am tertiary educated to a post-grad level and have years of experience as a mentor and learning facilitator in Music and Performing Arts. I have also worked for the NSW Office of Sport in their school outdoor rec facilities, using my Cert 3 and 4 in Outdoor Leadership qualifications.

I have worked in schools as a teacher’s assistant/aide, music teacher, a mentor, educator, digital literacy guest teacher, and in outdoor education. I am informed by my studies and practice in trauma-informed embodiment modalities and I have worked in residential youth care settings. My teacher’s assistant role in Mparntwe/Alice Springs brought me into contact with diverse backgrounds and some big behaviours, and I found it very fulfilling to connect with challenging students and be their companion in the learning process, in the face of their challenges.
