Special needs parent with a world and worth of experience!
| I've been nannying for the past 20 years. I've cared for children with Type 1 diabetes, with high medical needs requiring the use of an epi pen, Autism, ADHD, other mental health diagnosis as well as growing up alongside 2 friends who had cerebral palsy & I'd often help them at school. I've also helped a couple of friends over the years who were born deaf & have hearing aids fitted. I've also cared for older children who have had incontinence problems as well. I have 4 of my own children. My son has been diagnosed with Level 2 ASD & my daughter has been diagnosed with Level 1 ASD & ADHD. I am well aware of the additional care needs that being a special needs parent incorporates & the toll it can take on you. I've been actively engaged in learning both speech techniques and occupational therapy activities to assist special needs children in my care since my son was diagnosed almost 7 years ago. I'd love to see if I can help with the care for your child while you either work or take a much needed break. I am happy to do all household tasks. I'm well adapted to the sensory issues that a lot of our beautiful children struggle with as well & how they thrive on routine. I'd love to hear from you!
Loren has been a wonderful help to our family. Her easy going and warm personality made our kids very comfortable very quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her for any childcare requirements."

Disability Support Worker and Babysitter
| Hi Everyone! My name is Hollie and I am a baby sitter (5 years ) and support worker (3 years) who has a strong passion for working with children of all abilities! I am currently studying to become a psychologist at Western Sydney University, looking to work with children and teenagers in my future ! Personally, I love getting outdoors and getting my body moving in the community. Whether it be playing sport or visiting local beaches, I like being active and supporting others to as well. I am a really open and caring individual that will use my skills and knowledge to assist and uplift others in whatever the support they may need. I have babysat all through my teenage years, although most predominantly in the past 4 years, alongside disability support work in the past three years. I have experience working with children with ASD, ADHD, Global Development Delay, Anxiety, Depression, 22q and hearing and speech impairments. I also have experience in conducting ABA therapy sessions within a program. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask!
Hollie has been supporting my 10yr old special needs son for 6 months now on a weekly basis and we are more than happy with her care. Hollie is trustworthy, compassionate, competent and reliable. My sons face lights up every time he sees her !"
