Summary

I love working in social environments as it is where i feel i flourish. over the past 5 years i have gathered a lot of experiences from multiple unique industries. I would consider myself a reliable childcare provider, several of my previous positions have trained me to create enthusiastic and supportive environment for children that i care for, as well as multiple training courses to ensure i am aware of all different practicals.

additionally with multiple past positions in hospitality, i have worked to develop a inviting and positive space for guests. with bar, waitress and limited coffee training, hospitality comes naturally to me.
