Hi, my name is Darienne, I am 55 years old and have been an animal lover and trainer of brilliant dogs my whole life! I am currently on the Gold Coast staying with my sister and caring for my aged parents and helping to find them the ongoing care they need. I have always shared my life with dogs, cats, horses and birds and lived on a farm growing up where we had beef cattle. I currently have a 25 year old horse who is in retirement! I have owned parrots for about fifteen years. I regularly travel from Southern NSW to the Gold Coast by car with my dogs. I am a midwife and a lactation consultant and am available for overnight stays with new parents as well. I am a mother of three adult children. I am calm and confident with animals and people! I have current Criminal Record checks, Working with Children checks and attend regular First Aid and Resuscitation training through my work and can provide personal references! I am also available for support with baby care if needed. My fees are flexible and negotiable dependent on the type of support, level of care and hours you require. Please contact me if you think I might be able to help you!
