Employers say:
- “I found her to be very reliable, honest and flexible. My children loved her and certainly looked forward to her taking care of them. Her sunny disposition made her transition into our family life very easy. My middle child had learning difficulties with her reading, “J” was very patient and instrumental in getting her through this time. She prepared nutritious dinners and oversaw their bedtime routines. Generally, I would get home at 7.30pm, whenever I ran behind schedule, “J” was very accommodating to stay longer.” – S Family
- “J” has a wonderful way with children and instantly makes them feel at ease. She has a caring nature and this is evident in her manner when she was volunteering at the Children’s Fun Days and after school events. Whilst volunteering at the Fun Days, “J” organised several of the events including face painting, creative crafts, ball games, painting and beading. She also ran small groups at Sunday school, organised morning teas; sometimes letting the children cook (under guided supervision). Over the 10 years I have known “J”, I have seen her grow into a very caring and genuine person. She is prompt, reliable and always shows a willingness to help others.” – Mrs H
