So lucky to have spent the last 18 months working with my participant and her husband to convert this simple veggie patch to an epic accessible green house and veggie garden! SWIPE to see some of the stages!

After working for 15 years in the Adventure travel industry and then raising some amazing kids, I've had a career change and 2020 saw me study the cert IV in Disability at Melbourne Polytechnic. I really enjoyed this learning experience and found that units studied have been so beneficial in my new career.

I am extremely passionate about empowerment and I enjoy focusing on the amazing abilities of the people I support, rather than just the disability. I like to form genuine relationships with my Clients and always take their lead in the kind of support they would like. I also care deeply about improving inclusivity in the community and pride myself on actively raising awareness about the social model of disability.

I love working with children and have found my clients like there is a lot of flexibility when it comes to choosing me as their support worker. As I have a large back yard with some amazing sensory equipment some of my clients prefer I support their children at my home. They get to take advantage of this equipment and parents receive complete respite whilst I have their children in my care.

Although my focus is working with children, I often take adult clients as I love the adult company and diversity it brings to my role! I really love meeting new people and I’ve met some incredible people throughout my short journey as a Disability Support Worker.

I love being an independent Support Worker as I believe it gives people more choice and more control over the quality and consistency of their support.
