Summary
I am a hard working employee with lots of experience with children. I'm soon to finish my TAFE course at RMIT in Certificate IV School Based Education Support, I graduate between May-June but am available to start before then if required. My family have been foster carers for my whole life, my Mother, Aunt, and Grandparents have all taken care of foster children. This has always inspired me to work with children as I've seen how much difference a school experience can affect a child's development. I want to make a difference in someones life.
