Caroline Tonihi

My CV reflects very little about myself - let me share my story so you can get to know and understand me and why I feel I would be great value to your team.

I was a teen mum having my child at the age of 17, raising my son as a solo mother with little to no support.

I then went on to have 5 more children however my relationship became very unhealthy forcing me to leave the relationship raising 6 children on my own.

5 years on I have done alot of self reflecting, healing and personal growth.

As my youngest child has turned 5 I am ready to focus on myself. I plan to study counseling within the 5 years to become a school counselor.

Working with children of all ages is something I am very passionate about especially teenagers - I know the need to be seen, heard and supported no matter the situation.

I believe I would fit well in this role as I am very compassionate, understanding and approachable
