Hi, I am Maija, a 27 year old woman originally from Finland, but now residing on the Northern Beaches of Sydney with my partner (I'm on a Bridging Visa, with full unlimited work rights). I have just graduated as a Bachelor of Social Services - this means, I've got vast theoretical knowledge of supporting people, children and adults alike, in different phases and situations in life! I am very enthusiastic and passionate about working with and supporting people. Other experience than my degree include working at an after school care program, a youth foster home, and as a care coordinator in a neighborhood center. I get along with different people very well, am an active listener and an empathic, supportive person in general. I have my Working with Children Check, National Police clearance and First Aid & CPR certificates all in check!
