Brooke

Brief info

My name is Brooke, I am 29 years old and from Australia. A qualified primary school teacher with over ten years of experience working with children across a range of settings.

My working life has always revolved around children, and I genuinely couldn't imagine it any other way! I have a real passion for working with children of all ages and love creating fun, meaningful and memorable experiences for them, whether that be in the classroom, at home with a family or out in the mountain environment.

I have a diverse background in nannying, primary teaching, ski instructing, dance teaching and vacation care. My nannying journey began when I was 17, and since then I have had the privilege of caring for many wonderful families. I have experience working with children aged 12 months to 17 years. I have also spent over eight years working as a primary school teacher and have taken on additional leadership responsibilities as a teacher leader and relieving assistant principal.

Growing up in a snow town, the mountains have always been a huge part of my life. I started skiing at three years old and went on to work as a ski instructor. I love sharing my enthusiasm for the outdoors and helping children build confidence, try new things and have fun along the way. I have also worked as a group leader at ACTURA Space Camp in America, creating exciting and engaging experiences for teenagers aged 12–17.

I would describe myself as energetic, approachable, patient and dependable. I am punctual, organised and pride myself on having excellent communication with both parents and children. I hold relevant first aid qualifications, including CPR and Anaphylaxis training, as well as Type 1 Diabetes training.

Above all, I love what I do and feel incredibly lucky to be part of children's learning, development and adventures. I look forward to working alongside families on their ski holiday.

“Brooke is one of the hardest-working people I have had the pleasure of working with. She is dependable, follows through on everything she commits to, and sets high standards for herself and for the children in her care. She conducts herself professionally at all times with students, families and colleagues. Brooke is resourceful, flexible and tenacious. When challenges arise, she works through them calmly and finds solutions rather than waiting for someone else to. She adapts well to changing situations and to the needs of individual children. She is also an excellent time keeper: punctual, organised and always well prepared. She is kind, caring and courteous, and is always willing to help others.

Brooke has a strong understanding of child development, wellbeing and learning, and she builds warm, positive relationships with children and their families. When it comes to children’s safety, Brooke is completely trustworthy. I would have full confidence in her working independently with children. She brings both care and good judgement to everything she does. Any family she works with will be in very good hands”.
