Gabrielle Gibney

How long have you been working with Stronger Together Foundation? And what is your role?

Admin co-ordinator and about 6 weeks.

What inspired you to work with kids? Was it the fun toys or something else?

I’ve come from another industry working with babies/children and enjoy working in a rewarding role helping, supporting and encouraging them.

What’s the best part of your day? Is it that first sip of coffee or a little victory with a kiddo?

Bedtime is my favourite part of the day – kids in bed, showered, chores are done, ready to relax and block out the world.

What’s your favourite activity or game you play in sessions?

I don’t work in the sessions, but I do love the “pack away song” and often go home singing it.

When you’re not at work, where would we most likely find you?

The gym, at the shops, drinking coffee or with family.

Is there a book or movie that totally speaks to your work? (Bonus points if it’s a kid’s movie!)

Bluey – it’s just so relatable.

What is your favourite animal? And do you have any pets?

Not a huge pet person, love a butterfly. Our cattle dog of 12 years passed away about 2 years ago.

What’s your guilty pleasure snack that powers you through a long day?

Coffee or chocolate.

Finish this sentence: “When I grow up, I want to be as cool as…!”

The version of me that has it all figured out.
