A Little Bit About Me
Hi! I’m a woman in my 30s with a physical and psychosocial disability, looking for friendly and reliable Support Workers to support me in achieving my goals.

My family and children are very important to me, and I enjoy spending time with them. I love music, especially singing along to my favourite songs, and I enjoy wearing make-up and stylish clothes to feel confident. I also like baking and cooking and would enjoy support in these activities.

I’m looking for someone kind, patient, and positive who can support my independence, respect my choices, and build a genuine connection with me.

Your Role in My Journey
An Opportunity is available to join my team and help to facilitate my daily life. My support workers assist me on a 1 to 1 basis throughout the day. I am independent and do most things myself however I require assistance with day to day living which includes cooking and meal preparation, household tasks and supporting me with my decision making. I am seeking a Support Worker who is wanting to join a team environment and is passionate about helping people.
