I am a caring, reliable and patient primary school teacher, with many years experience teaching in Australia and Ireland. I'm a passionate and creative person, and so have taken a step back from teaching to pursue my interest in photography. I enjoy fostering a safe space for children to celebrate being themselves and grow in areas they are interested in. It's important to note that I have experience working with children of varying needs and abilities, supporting them in a world built for neurotypical brains. I strive to help them uncover their worth, value and potential while honing in on what they truly love. In my previous schools, I have specialised in Performing Arts and directed a whole school performance for the musical 'Finding Nemo Jr.' I have also founded STEM as a subject and coordinated it from the ground up. I love animals and being in nature. I enjoy meeting new people and the joy of constantly learning and growing from experiences. I would love to meet some open-minded, kind and respectful families to help around the St. Kilda area. Please reach out if I sound like a good fit for you and your crew! :)

Dear Parents, I am an experienced nanny who has had the privilege of growing up in a large family with many children. My passion for education and childcare led me to dedicate three years of my life to teaching in an underprivileged school program. Over the past few years, I have built a strong foundation in childcare through roles as a teacher, au pair, and nanny. One of the unique aspects I bring to the table is my proficiency in multiple languages as a foreigner. I am enthusiastic about sharing my language skills with your children, providing them with a valuable opportunity for language acquisition and cultural enrichment. Having children around me brings me immense joy, and this love for their company has been a driving force in my career choices. For the past two years, I have had the privilege of serving as a dedicated nanny to three families, including toddlers and newborns. This experience has equipped me with the skills and patience needed to ensure the well-being and development of your precious little ones. Reliability is at the core of my work ethic, and I take pride in being a dependable caregiver. As a nanny, I understand that parents often have busy lives, and I am here to assist you by taking some of the responsibilities off your plate, allowing you to focus on other important aspects of your life. In summary, I am a dedicated and experienced professional who is passionate about childcare and education. I bring a wealth of experience, multilingual skills, and a nurturing nature to create a safe and enriching environment for your children. I would be honored to join your family and contribute to your child's growth and happiness. Thank you for considering me as a potential caregiver for your loved ones. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how I can meet your family's specific needs and expectations.
