Summary

My passion is to enroll myself into a career of interior design. Currently I am seeking a full-time, part-time or casual position that can help me develop higher skills in working as part of a team, learning from others and developing as a professional.

I am a caring and competent Childcare Provider experienced in keeping kids safe while nurturing development with age-appropriate activities. I have strong verbal and written communication skills, an organised nature and proactive approach to solving problems and managing conflict.

I am available to work anytime, and have reliable transport to and from work.

I love hands on work and getting out creating things and giving my all.
