Profile:
Over the past 17 years I have worked in a variety of child care positions; from family day care to nannying to Daycare Centres. I have a thorough knowledge of the needs of children from 0-12 years and am exceptionally capable of catering to their needs. I have the ability to work independently and participate effectively as a team member.
For 3.5 years I was employed by Family Day Care, where I carried the title of A Day care Mum. During that time my responsibilities were many and varied, however the main focus was on caring for the children.
These functions enabled me to utilize my excellent organizational skills and in particular, focus on attention to detail whilst meeting strict deadlines.
I have experience in a wide range of duties & possess a high level of commitment to duties undertaken and have the ability to communicate effectively with parents and children..
Additionally, I enjoy working in a busy environment with a variety of tasks and regard myself as an enthusiastic and dedicated person with good interpersonal skills.
I believe I meet the criteria for this role you are offering and look forward to hearing from you to further discuss this position.
Personal attributes:
I am a team player and can also work independently
I am reliable and honest
I am conscientious and hard working
I am energetic and flexible
I have fostered children from 2005 - 2010.
