A little bit about me
Family hosting included many different roles; house maintenance, cleaning, childcare, house organization, stock-take, and staff management. I have worked for multiple esteemed families and have learnt valuable skills and lessons working amongst a home and in a family dynamic.
My later education in psychotherapy enables me to approach any situation with compassion and care. I believe that the skills and attributes attained throughout my therapy studies will assist me in any professional situation.
I would love the opportunity to assist you and your family. If you have any positions, it would be an honor to be considered.
