Here I was initially employed as a caregiver, assisting those whom were physically and mentally disabled. This included house work, and personal cares. Soon after I then became an assistant nurse which expanded my skills and allowed me to be more of myself as I am quite soft natured.

Here I:

• Administered prescribed medications on a timely basis following care plan instructions.
• Maintained accurate records of services provided, changes in client condition, medications administered and other pertinent information.
• Encouraged independence while promoting self-care skills such as bathing, grooming and toileting needs.
• Provided companionship to patients by talking to them, listening to their concerns, and helping them stay positive.
• Assisted nurses with daily patient care, including dressing wounds and providing hygiene assistance.
• Participated in team meetings with other healthcare professionals about individual patient plans of care.
• Conducted routine checks on patient vitals, blood pressure, blood sugar and heart rate.

At Central Hastings learning centre, I was employed as an 'unregistered' early childhood teacher.

My position there enabled me to work with children as early as the age of 6 months to 5 years old.

It brought me great joy to nurture these children day by day and help create 'magical' experiences and beautiful friendships for them to remember.

Here I:

• Implemented hands-on, play-based strategies for experiential learning.
• Enhanced sensory abilities by giving children access to numerous textures and shapes.
• Developed professional relationships with parents and teachers.
• Organised and led activities to promote physical, mental and social development.
• Maintained daily records of individual activities, behaviours, meals and naps.

At Green meadows ‘New world’, I was employed as a Lotto clerk and later was trained on the till.

Here I:

• Built and maintained productive relationships with employees.
• Welcomed customers, offering assistance to help find store items.
• Resolved customer complaints and escalated worsening concerns for remediation.
• Scanned items and checked pricing on cash register for accuracy.
• Kept check-out areas clean, organised, and well-stocked to maintain attractive store.

"@88 restaurant and bar", I was employed from the very first day of opening. Initially as a receptionist and soon after became more involved as a waitress and bartender.

Here, I worked full time and would:

• Stocked server areas with supplies before, during and after shifts.
• Carefully transferred orders from kitchen and bar areas to tables and cleared plates as customers finished food and beverage items.
• Addressed concerns or complaints quickly to improve service and escalated more advanced issues to management for resolution.
