Summary

As a support worker committed to providing compassionate assistance, I’m here to lend a helping hand wherever client’s may need it. I am eager to apply my skills and experience to help provide personalised support tailored to client’s needs. I would welcome the opportunity to support clients with confidence along their journey of fulfillment and engagement in life.


As a qualified teacher I have developed a number of skills in an educational setting. I have developed skills in dealing with difficult and challenging situations.

My experience has helped me develop an understanding of an individual’s personal and social needs, and to demonstrate care and concern in response to their positive and negative emotions.

I am able to respond compassionately, and to further support an individual’s needs.

I am recognised for my dependability, strong work ethic and commitment to developing positive outcomes.
