Looking for: Full-time,Part-time,Casual Babysitting

My name is Joy and i'm located within the South Coast, NSW. My career in the Early Childhood industry began in 2022 which fuelled a strong passion of mine through teaching the children and experiencing their joy! I have found I learn just as much from them, as they do from myself. The career in which I pursued was indeed rewarding. As years progress, I find my ambition in search of a change with similar values and qualities that I admire, which also incorporates interesting elements. Having experience working in Early Childhood services, I have no problem with 38hr wks and am flexible regarding shift times. That being said, I have no issue in regards to commute, thus allowing me to care for children and their families across the illawarra/sydney area. I hope you consider me for this wonderful opportunity!
