I have been working as a casual in the Home-care assistant company for the last one year and am excited about the opportunity to start a new chapter as a Support Worker within your other organizations.
I have experience in providing personal care and assistance to individuals with disabilities, within their own homes and out in the community.
I am very passionate about helping people to achieve their goals and aspirations. I work closely with individuals to establish individualized plans incorporating their needs, choices, goals, and aspirations.
I also have experience in offering advice on independent living skills such as food preparation, budgeting bills, shopping, cleaning, and laundry. As part of my role, I have had experience in liaising with social services, educational institutions, and other healthcare professionals to ensure the best quality of life outcomes for the individuals that I have supported.
I consider myself to be an approachable person who has strong communication skills both written and verbal.
I can communicate effectively with individuals from all walks of life including clients, their families, and other professionals while maintaining confidentiality at all times.

I am a mum of three with one child with Epilepsy, this is scary but I have learnt so much. I am also a nanny to various families, some with spectrum disorder.
I feel that all these experiences are so rewarding as I pride myself in being a naturally empathetic and supportive person. I genuinely love to help, I have been unwell myself due to a kidney condition so I know just how daunting it can be to be unwell and need to trust someone while feeling incredibly vulnerable.
I would love the opportunity to chat further to see if I can help you out.

Hi! My name is Sydney. I am a 21-year-old woman from the U.S. I will be in Australia studying to earn my Master of Occupational Therapy.
I started working with people with disabilities 7 years ago in a therapeutic recreation environment. My job was to support people with disabilities’ access to recreation, including being a 1:1 inclusion support for kids in programs such as summer camps, art classes, swim lessons, etc. In this position, I also worked in groups designed for adults, adolescents, and kids with disabilities.
Additionally, I have worked as an assistant in a special education preschool for children aged 3-5 years, and as an in-home caregiver for children and young adults (including overnight care). I was also a live-in nanny for non-disabled infant/toddler twins for ten months in Spain.
I am open to a position in special needs care for individuals of any age, or as a nanny for non-disabled children. I am looking for consistent weekly hours with one or two families. I am open to live-in positions.
Hours I’m looking for: Mon/Tues/Thurs afternoons and flexible hours on Wednesdays and Fridays. I am also open to discussing weekend care. My goal is 20-25 hours per week at $35+ an hour but I am open for negotiations.
