Welcome - Olive Editing

Foster & Kinship Carers NT welcomes Bailey Tambling from Olive Editing, who has joined us as the board’s secretariat support. She assists the board with document preparation, minute-taking at board meetings and editing or proofreading tasks where needed.


Bailey is from a long line of Territorians, from World War II education pioneers to parliamentarians, and she’s excited to be helping our NT organisation.


Bailey’s assistance with the board means we can focus on our decision-making and continue to move forward without the hold-ups of paperwork and note-taking.


Bailey’s business, Olive Editing, provides editing, proofreading and transcription services for government agencies, small businesses, individuals and not-for-profit organisations around the NT and Australia.


Bailey believes in the benefits of improving life outcomes for vulnerable people. Working with FKCANT and meeting some of the foster carers who contribute to these outcomes has only strengthened her belief in systems that are working for the betterment of our future Territorians.
