Meet Elivia: A nanny and au pair in Melbourne, VIC

I have worked in schools as a teaching assistant for three years, studied in education for 4 years and can provide references for all my experience.

I’m an active, creative and outdoorsy female. I’ve always sought after a career in childcare and during my studies I discovered my passion for early years education/care. I spent time in my studies dedicated to children with special needs and wrote my dissertation based on children with ADHD, something I have a lot of family experience with. I believe my active and creative nature encourages children to develop their skills and knowledge through play and experiences. In life I endeavour to adopt a positive way of life. I enjoy yoga and mindfulness, I feel these can be good ways to practice reflection and listening to what the mind/body needs. I have used these methods with kids in the classroom so they have dedicated time for themselves. I believe helping children regulate their emotions and thoughts is really important in our busy modern society.

I am currently in the process of gaining my working visa and WWCC. I plan to be in the Melbourne area at the start of December. If this suits your needs don’t hesitate to get in touch, I believe a conversation is a much better display of character than a short bio :)
