Working collaboratively with families, guardians and professionals to support care plans
Ensuring the safety and wellbeing of children at all times

What you will bring to the role:

Strong communication, problem-solving and interpersonal skills
High emotional intelligence and resilience in complex environments
Commitment to providing consistent, high-quality care
Ability to accurately document and follow care plans
Understanding of, or willingness to learn, trauma-informed and therapeutic approaches
Current CPR & First Aid, Victorian Working with Children Check (Employee), NDIS Worker Screening Check & completion of the NDIS Workers Orientation Module (or willingness to obtain)
