About Me
I am a 3rd year Child and Youth Care student at Algonquin college looking to expand my experience working with children.
I have 10+ year experience working with children from 0-12 years of age through babysitting, a home daycare, summer camps and my school placements.
I am reliable and trustworthy and strive to meet parents expectations for their child's care as well as helping children to grow in a positive and strengths based environment.
I have many assets to bring including flexibility, open-mindedness, promptness, creativity and an imagination.
I am a hard worker and am willing to help out around the home with whatever is needed.Some other experience that I bring is my various volunteer opportunities that I have been a part of. At the age of 12 I travelled to Zimbabwe Africa for 2 weeks as a part of a missions team and spent most of that time interacting with the children there. Although I was young it has impacted me in a positive way.
In 2015 I travelled to Guatamala for 2 weeks as a member of another missions team where I worked with children and their families every day.
Other volunteer experience includes a counsellor at Vacation bible School summer programs for 4 years and a youth leader at a Baptist church for 2 years.
I have some experience travelling with families to assist with children as I have been on two trips for that purpose, one being out of the country.Bottom line, I love children and I always have, I love watching them grow and being a part of that and I value any time that I get to be in a child's life.
Every child I have worked with has taught me something no matter how young or how small the lesson and I would love any opportunity to continue learning from these tiny humans.
