I started babysitting in high school and later worked for a short time as a teacher's assistant in a co-operative community childcare centre. My duties included playing with the children, assisting with food preparation and cleaning. I am most comfortable caring for children between the ages of 2.5 - 10. I have experience caring for children with Autism. I have First Aid training and have my Working With Children Check. A bit about me - I'm an artist and musician. I really enjoy working with children. I'm very patient and considerate and am able to create a space where the kids in my care can feel safe, supported and happy. Also I am a ball of energy; I can keep up with pretty much anyone.
