So a little about myself.. I come from a fairly big family, I am the oldest of 5 children with my youngest brother being 18 years younger then myself. So growing up I was well trained to care for all my little siblings. My brothers, sister and I all had a wonderful childhood which resulted in my sister and I both wih a passion to bring some of the wonder and magic from our childhood into the lives of the little ones we care for presently. Before moving to Darwin I had been working alongside my sister who is the Director of an Early Childcare Centre in a small town in Queensland. The centre catered for all age groups right from birth up to our after school care program. I am experienced in creating a safe, positive and FUN environment for children of all ages. I have been responsible for monitoring the physical and emotion needs of children, bathing, nappy changes, feeding and care of small infants, preparing healthy snacks, organising and supervising day trips and excursions. Through my experience I have developed an extended understanding of children's physical, social, intellectual and emotional development. I believe as a carer I am a very responsible, fair, good natured, energetic and loving.
