Summary

Having worked with children in a range of environments, looking after and teaching kids is one of my strongest skills, and one that I thoroughly enjoy. I bring a natural friendliness and sincerity, but also have the ability to be firm and calming when the situation calls for it.

With many years working in both hospitality and customer service, I am a strong communicator, able to work well both on my own and in a group. I pride myself on being adaptable and a fast learner, and genuinely interested in other people. I also personally really enjoy swimming, and believe it's an integral skill to learn and practice.
