About

Professional summary

I am a compassionate and motivated Social Work graduate with a Diploma in Social Work from the University of Lagos. I am interested in supporting children, young people, and vulnerable individuals through social services and community-based programmes.

I have gained practical fieldwork exposure in child and youth support, hospice care, and correctional settings. These placements strengthened my understanding of the social, emotional, and welfare needs of vulnerable people and their families.

I bring empathy, active listening, communication, observation, and interpersonal skills to my work. I value compassionate care, respectful engagement, and collaborative teamwork when supporting individuals and communities.

I am particularly interested in child welfare and protection, community development, youth support and rehabilitation, and NGO or humanitarian services. I am eager to continue learning and developing as a social work professional.

I am a dedicated team player with a willingness to adapt and contribute to positive outcomes for service users. I can support basic documentation, record-keeping, community engagement, and client-focused social service activities.
