Rabecca Finds Her Dream Job

South Sudanese migrant and Adult Migrant English Program (AMEP) student Rabecca Atem has the world at her feet after securing work in her chosen field of child care with the help of STEPS Education & Training.

Rabecca began studying English in September last year, and after finding her dream job at a Crèche recently, she continues her English studies at the night classes provided by STEPS Education & Training in Casuarina, Darwin.

Having worked in a children’s home in Kenya, Rabecca is a passionate and caring person with the ability to connect with children of all ages.

“I love the childcare industry and love helping children develop their social, intellectual and motor skills,” Rabecca said.

Creche manager Vena Nyandoro said Rabecca is a real asset to their team.

“It feels like she’s been here forever, she fits right in and always arrives first to work and gets everything organised,” Vena said.

STEPS staff supported Rabecca through her employment journey by assisting her in applying for her Ochre (clearance to work with children) card and by referring her to employment opportunities in the local area.
