I came to Johannesburg in 1997 to study BA Social Work at Wits University which I completed. I have worked at different places such as Counselling centres, Remedial School, Children `s Home and now I have been with St Peters Child Care since 2009. Initially I had no desire to work with young kids, but my experiences at St Peters have changed all that. I enjoy the challenges that come with helping Foster mothers raise Orphans. To watch them grow and excel in their own way gives me such joy and satisfaction. I am looking forward to my journey ahead with St Peters Child Care.  I have Masters Degree in Occupational Social Work from Wits University. My daughter is currently a BA student at Wits University.     Committee Members Julietta.Wolff
