I have extensive experience looking after children, young people and their families. I am a youth worker specialising in mental health and a trainer and assessor too!
In my spare time I enjoy photography, catching up with friends and family but more importantly spending time with my baby girl. Every moment with our children is precious.

I have a Bachelor of Youth Work, WWCC, Police Check and First Aid Training (Asthma, Anaphylaxis, CPR and emergency training).

However, prior to this I have coordinated multiple before and after school care programs across Melbourne for several years working closely with primary aged children.
As a new mother and someone who has worked with many children, young people and their families my core values are open and honest communication, respect and consent. I am an advocate for gentle parenting as our little ones are their own little person and still learning all there is to know about the world 🌎.
