Diane C.

Supporting children and their parents through loving kindness and respect. I retired from the WA Government in 2014 where I had pursued a lifestyle of working long hours for financial reward. In August 2016 I received a Certificate IV in Ageing Support and began working as a carer. I work with people of all ages, and abilities, including children. Many of the people I work with need assistance because their behaviours require a professional approach and others have physical or intellectual disabilities, which means they need support to optimise their abilities and fill in the gaps. At last I work for spiritual reward, spending time with people of all ages, contributing to their personal happiness and learning experiences in a positive way. I don't support physical, mental or verbal violence but instruct with honesty and options. I am happy to cook and take on some house work when there is time. My primary role is to provide support and a social opportunity, focusing on fun, safety, wellbeing, whilst promoting personal growth.
