I'm wanting to return to my former work in disability support, in a casual or part-time capacity.

To chat with me about this phone me on  0414  374  701, or email me via this form (make sure you type your own email address correctly otherwise I won't be able to reply).

I'm also looking for accommodation, preferably in the Shire of Mundaring (Hills east of Midland). See my page about that at www.mixmargaret.com/ROOM.

PAGE in PROGRESS. Here are some excerpts from my resume:

Seeking position of Disability Support Worker

    For most of my life I’ve been involved in helping or teaching one-to-one, leading me to become resourceful and innovative. Through this process I have developed advanced interpersonal communication.

    In various roles over the last twenty years I’ve worked with or had interaction with a long list of young teens to elderly people with many kinds of disabilities. The list includes Asperger’s/autism/ASD, acquired brain injury, cerebral palsy, hypothyroidism, spinal injury, MS, and people with mental illnesses of many kinds such as schizophrenia, bi-polar, clinical paranoia, depression, anxiety, dementia and drug-induced psychosis.

    This experience was gained in many settings. From 2010 to 2012 I worked as a disability support worker for two companies in Perth, with many teenage and middle aged clients.

    In over five years of taxi driving (2004 - 2010) I had many regular and one-off fare clients with various disabilities and mental illnesses.

    In decades of private music tuition (which I still do part-time) I have occasionally had students with ASD, dementia, MS or paraplegia. This inspired me to adapt my teaching methods a little more than usual. In teaching I always focus on working towards achievement using an individual’s strengths and addressing their individual priorities.

    Around the turn of the century I was heavily involved in TransWest: The Transgender Association of WA, an unfunded peer community support & advocacy group. Over several years I was Development Officer, Outreach Officer and then Convenor. I'm an androgyne (non-binary transgender person, or 'enby').
