Summary

Passionate about transitioning into the childcare industry, I recently completed my Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care and gained hands-on experience during my placement at a childcare center in tarniet. My background as a hairdresser has equipped me with strong communication, patience, and relationship-building skills, which are essential in a childcare setting. Through my placement, i developed skills in assisting with play-based learning, supporting children and daily routine. Iam eager to bring my enthusiasm, creativity, and dedication to a childcare role, fostering a positive and engaging learning experience for children.
