I am a married mum of four adult children and five grandchildren. I have experience dealing with people within a customer service position and service allocator as well as a support worker for the aged and disabled sector. My strengths I believe are to be empathic, warm and a caring person who likes to help people where and whenever I can. My beliefs are that all people should be treated equally with dignity and respect and understand the importance of reliability and honesty in any position
