About Helen

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I have 25 years of experience working with infants and children. I am an education forward childcare professional who focuses on the holistic development of the child and provides a nurturing and fun environment. I have formal child development qualifications and a PhD in educational development. I am a certified newborn care specialist, am proficient in baby sign language, sleep training and baby led weaning. I have impeccable educational experience and have been a school teacher and a college lecturer, therefore I am really well placed to help children with homework - all the way from Kindergarten to High School. I am comfortable looking after children from birth to teens, and I enjoy looking after any age of child. I love having fun with the children, I am pediatric first aid, AED and CPR trained. I follow instructions well and can cope with unexpected situations confidently and am happy to undertake varied tasks!. I would be happy to provide additional information if you need it!

First class service! I was really impressed with all the activities and detailed notes Helen left after spending one day with my 1 yr old daughter! Very positive impact on my kids and family! Would definitely rehire on the next opportunity!
