Teacher's aide, homework help and after school care
About Gail
Hi, my name is Gail. I work as a teacher's aide three days a week and I'm looking for after school work on the other two, plus school holidays.
Homework is where I'm useful. I've spent years sitting next to kids who have decided they can't do it, and it turns out most of them can. Reading, times tables, the lot. I'm also happy to let them flop on the lounge for half an hour first, because that's fair enough after a school day.
WWCC through work, first aid current.

Speech path student, 4 years in after school care
Final year speech pathology at USyd, and I've worked at an OOSH service in Concord for four years, so I've done the 3pm chaos about a thousand times. Homework, afternoon tea, getting everyone out the door for swimming. I'm good with kids who take a while to warm up, and I don't rush them. My Vietnamese is fine for everyday things and useless for jokes. The car is a hand me down Corolla with two an

Maternity nurse, newborns and the whole first year
Registered nurse, twenty years. The first eight were general medical and emergency. The last twelve have been maternity and special care nursery, which is where I have stayed because it suits me. Alongside my shifts I do private newborn support, and I take evening babysitting for families who have a baby in the house and want someone who is not going to panic.

Nonna in Concord, proper meals and after school care
My name is Filomena. I am 64 and I have lived in the same street in Concord since 1981. I have five grandchildren. Three of them are in Melbourne with my son, so I do not see them enough, and two are here and both at school now. The house is very quiet in the day. I have been minding children in this street since many years. First the neighbours' children, then their children. One of the mothers I
