Jasmine Cross
Reynella East
Summary
Firstly, I would like to thank you for taking the time to read and consider my application. My name is Jasmine, and I am a mother to two young boys, aged five and one. I live with my husband and our children in the suburb of Reynella East. I have a full driver's license, and I am very comfortable with traveling short or long distances for work. Being a mother, I am very compassionate and caring. I also am very experienced in taking care of others' needs and handling stressful situations. I pride myself on being organized, time-efficient, reliable, and responsible. Although I do not currently have experience in the professional field of disability support work, I do have experience in caring for others. For example, my grandma, who is 83 and very unwell, I have been caring for her for over a year now, helping out with meals, cleaning, and I have even assisted her with showering. I truly have a heart and a passion to care for and assist others in need, and I would love the opportunity to do so.
