Hello families! My name is Helena, I am a 25 year old, third year social work student who thoroughly enjoys working alongside children and families. As a future social work practitioner, I value respect, empathy and kindness and ensure that I embody these characteristics in the context of family. I value evidence-based practices when working with children and have participated in a Circle of Security training in order to learn how to support and strengthen parent-child relationships. As such, I understand how to respond to the emotional needs of children at any developmental stage as well as supporting children to manage their emotions. I also understand ways in which to enhance children’s self-esteem and be their own little person. I have had experience in the community services sector, working closely with families, babies and infants with complex needs. I also have been a nanny for a family for four years and have only ceased working for them as their son has grown into the wonderful world of adolescence (and independence!) and no longer requires care. I am currently tutoring in Social Work for UQ but welcome additional work with families as I miss the field immensely. I enjoy cooking and am open to cooking whenever required! I also have my own car and a full Australian open licence.

Helena was an absolute delight! communication both prior to and during the booking was friendly and professional. She was also flexible when my event ran over time and required an extra hour of her services. Helena engaged in many child-focused activities. My daughter (7 years) adored her. Will definitely hire again!
