Ilze Trollip
@ilzetrollip
I support children’s development while bringing strong administrative, customer service, and branch operations experience.
What I'm looking for
I currently manage day-to-day administration and operations at Atlantic Trailer Rental, handling customer enquiries, bookings, documentation, payment records, invoicing, follow-ups, and branch promotion.
I bring over 10 years of childcare and education experience as a tutor, babysitter, au pair, and aftercare teacher. At Canny Kids Academy, I led Grade RR classroom instruction, supervised aftercare, and supported learners with homework.
Across tutoring and au pair roles, I’ve supported children of different ages with academic work, homeschooling, routines, meals, play, and motor development. I focus on creating safe, structured, nurturing environments where children can thrive academically and emotionally.
I’ve also built practical administrative and customer-service experience through roles at EC Civil Worx, Plato Coffee, Bidvest Waltons, Tropical Eden Brokers, and in recruitment and call centre work. I’m motivated to contribute reliable support across both child development and operational needs.
