About Me

Hello! My name is Jane, and I am a creative virtual assistant based in sunny Newcastle, Australia.

In 2016, I founded The Jane Edit to provide support and guidance to women in small businesses within the creative industries.

Over the years, The Jane Edit has expanded its services to cater to the needs of my clients and fellow virtual assistants.

Whether it's business administration, web design, marketing, event management, or graphic design, I offer a range of complimentary services that cater to each client's or virtual assistant's unique needs.

I am proud to say that The Jane Edit has been thriving for over seven years!

Mentoring Services

In addition to my hands-on experience and expertise as a virtual assistant, I offer mentoring services to fellow virtual assistants.

Drawing from my formal qualifications and training in counselling from the Hunter Institute of Mental Health and additional courses and training, I have been mentoring VAs and small business owners for over six years.

As a successful virtual assistant myself, I know exactly what it takes to succeed in this field, and I can coach and mentor others who dream of a long-standing VA career.

I am passionate about helping fellow virtual assistants achieve their goals and build confidence. With my hands-on experience and expertise, I can offer personalised guidance, actionable advice, and support through challenging times.

I have helped many virtual assistants overcome barriers and mindset blockages to achieve incredible wins, and I'm so proud to be a part of their success stories.
