Hi Families,
My name is Tess, and I'm a 20-year-old from a small town in NSW. I moved to Melbourne at the beginning of 2023 to study a Bachelor of Nursing, and I'm currently in my third year at Australian Catholic University.
I have experience looking after children on both a regular and casual basis. I’ve just finished working with a family whose children are now off to school. I’ve cared for children ranging from 10 months to 15 years old, in both full-day and night-time settings. I enjoy engaging with kids through games, activities, trips to the park, kicking the ball around, and coloring to keep them entertained. I’m confident in nappy changes, bottle feeding, adapting to different sleep schedules, and catering to each child's unique needs.
Personally, I love sports and exercise, especially netball and running. I enjoy being active outdoors and am always looking for new hobbies and activities to keep myself and the kids I care for engaged and excited. I truly love working with different kids and families and find joy in watching them grow into their own unique individuals.
I look forward to meeting you!
