Summary

Highly-motivated employee with desire to take on new challenges, as a former member of Lynmore Playcentre I have been passionate member of Playcentre for 7 years with both of my daughters. During this time I gained knowledge of ECE regulation, Playcentre Aotearoa policies and procedures and undertook Playcentre Adult education. I have a proven and diverse employment and voluntary history, during which I have developed strong interpersonal and communication skills. I currently own and operate my own successful business, in which I am adept at working effectively unsupervised and to tight deadlines.
