I am flexible with location travelled to.
I am a qualified nurse (from many years ago) and I am currently working as a support worker through the NDIS. I am thoroughly enjoying this role and helping people live their best lives as independently as possible. I love getting to the end of the day knowing that I have made a positive difference to someone’s else’s day. I’m a positive, energetic person with a good sense of humour and I really enjoy getting out and about. I have experience working with both adults and children and I have both yellow and blue cards and a recent police check and first aid certificate. I support a lovely lady for a few hours a week and would love the opportunity to help others .I am 55 but very young at heart and don’t feel my age at all. I have had an interesting life travelling around the world and working as a Registered Nurse. I am a very caring person with a friendly personality. I love people and enjoy getting out and about. Job satisfaction means everything to me and getting to the end of the day feeling fulfilled because you made a difference is the best feeling ever!
I enjoy social activities such as going to the movies, eating out, going for walks and going to museums / theatre productions. I am an animal lover so bonus if you have a pet. I have a very dry sense of humour.
I am punctual, reliable, flexible and capable of most things. I’m really happy to catch up and see if we are a good fit for each other 🙂
I hope we get to meet and wish you all the best in your search.
Warm regards,
Melanie

Scuba Diving, walking, hiking, dinners/lunches out, country drives, going to the beach, going to the cinema, shopping, socialising.
At home activities I enjoy Netflix, doing jigsaw puzzles, listening to self development podcasts and audio books. I can also knit (but not very good at it, haha!)
I have a sunny disposition with a positive outlook on life.
I have worked in a sales role for the last 16 years – a lot of the skills have a cross over from nursing eg. communication, building trusting relationships, ongoing support, education, background support and coordination in getting a property ready for sale, organisational skills, Prior to that I was a Registered General Nurse for 20 years and also qualified as a Midwife. I have experience as a Community Staff Nurse and have worked in a variety of settings, including Palliative Care.
