I have worked as a Community support worker looking after the elderly in both NZ and Australia. I currently work in a nursing home and a couple of other agencies for both the elderly and children as a carer. I also have previous experience as a youth support worker and women's services in Melbourne and Canberra. I helped raise my partner's two daughters for seven years so I have experience with children first hand. I have my Cert 4 in Community Services and currently studying for my Cert 4 in Ageing Support and Diploma of Community Services.
