Louise Cox

Cannonvale,QLD

Summary

Hi my name is Louise Cox and I am settled and living in Cannonvale. I pride myself on punctuality, my ability to listen and perform any tasks given in a positive attitude.

My working history has mainly involved childcare roles however I am keen to broaden my options and willing to learn new skills and opportunities which may arise.

In my spare time I enjoy being in the outdoors whether it is camping, music festivals or nature walks. I participate in parkrun every weekend and also volunteer there. I have also volunteered at the ego barge helping to clean up Australian beaches.
