**What Makes You a Perfect Fit**:
We're searching for people who are as reliable as they are enthusiastic If you're ready to provide domestic assistance and more, we'd love to chat:

- A clear Police Check certificate (because safety first, always)
- First Aid, CPR, and Manual Handling certificates (we'll help you get these if you don't have them yet)
- Certificate III in Aged Care, Individual Support, or something similar (if you're not there yet, we'll help you hit this milestone)
- A friendly, upbeat attitude with top-notch communication skills
- A current Victorian driver's licence (let's hit the road)
- A reliable, roadworthy vehicle with insurance (we want you cruising in style)
