| Hello My name is Tine. I am 29 years old and I have recently moved to Australia from Denmark. I have worked in four daycares in Denmark and during this time I have been given a number of responsibilities, such as: Planning activities for small groups of children like name bracelets to get them interested in the alphabet and make spelling fun. Organising larger events like Sports Day and other fun stuff to get the kids active and to help them manage their natural competitive nature and how to deal with not always coming in first place. I have worked in after school care with children from 6 to 10 years old, and organised activities that are meant to make every kid feel smart and capable. I finished my Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and care at Tafe th 5th of December 2020 and I am looking to reinforce and apply these skills, as well as doing what I love, which is working and interacting with children. I would love to meet you and your child/children to see if we click. Lots of hugs Tine

| I can offer your family a wealth of experience which I have gained from working with children over a 20 year span. My roles have been varied and include kindergarten assistant, teacher aide in a classroom setting, educational aide at an environmental education centre, assistant to the coordinator at an after school and vacation care facility, crèche for children of the Cowboys rugby players (all paid employment) as well as caring for children with special needs in a voluntary capacity. I am grateful for each of these rewarding opportunities as the interaction with young people, parents, teachers and other carers has fostered an ability and passion to relate to people with a diverse range of ages, life experiences and cultures. It has given me a solid grounding to work in an environment requiring commitment, patience, professionalism, integrity and respect. I believe my work and voluntary history illustrates a sincere concern for, and appreciation of children. Whilst I do not have formal teaching qualifications I am confident that my experience and focus on education would be of great benefit to any child’s development. I have an appreciation for the importance of following routines whilst still remaining flexible and incorporating fun whenever possible. I am a strong believer in slowing the pace for children whenever able and derive great satisfaction from sharing simple pleasures such as a walk in the park appreciating nature, throwing a ball, playing board games and reading lots of books. I have completed Certificate III in Children's Services and held a blue card and First Aid Certificate (currently renewing). I hold an open driver's licence with a sound driving record and own a car which would be available if needed. I offer a potential employer a high degree of loyalty, extremely strong work ethic and a willingness to commit long term. I can provide excellent references and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. I would be delighted to provide any additional information you require. I would be able to commence employment immediately.
