I have been a proud member of Girl Guides Australia for many years. In which, I have looked after many young children and organised many activities to partake in. It was a great place to learn many life-long skills and develop my personal character.
In addition, I have prior experience looking after my younger siblings, (one of which is only 17 months old).
I have volunteered with many departments and groups throughout my schooling, (so far). For example, peer support, green group, public speaking, debating, library duties, breakfast club, duke of ed, etc.
I currently hold a learners driving licence, a first aid and resuscitation certificate, a white card, and a few others.
Hey, I’m Charlie!
I am 16 years old and am very enthusiastic when it comes to looking after children. I currently have a lot of experience within this job as I have looked after my neighbours kids countless times throughout the years. I also coach gymnastics as an intermediate accredited coach. Coaching is my current job which I enjoy so so much. I would love to apply these skills to other children living in Wollongong, so feel free to reach out if you need a young, enthusiastic, and fun babysitter to look after your kiddies.
