My Summary
About Me
I have a deep passion for working with children and am committed to pursuing a career in early years education. I’m known for my caring and nurturing nature, which helps me create supportive and enriching environments for young learners. In addition to my child care skills, I’m also adept at managing household tasks and caring for animals, showcasing my versatility and reliability. I take pride in ensuring safety, making activities enjoyable, and managing time effectively, always staying two steps ahead to anticipate and address needs proactively.
My Experience
With seven years of experience as a babysitter and five months as a camp counselor, I have developed a comprehensive skill set in child care and management. As a babysitter, I was responsible for the well-being and development of children ranging from infants to pre-teens, honing my skills in creating engaging activities, managing schedules, and addressing individual needs. My role as a camp counselor involved working with a diverse age group from 5 to 16 years old, where I designed and led activities, facilitated group dynamics, and provided a safe and supportive environment. This combination of experiences has equipped me with strong interpersonal skills, adaptability, and the ability to effectively communicate with both children and parents.
In addition as a freelance equestrian instructor for children, I provided personalised riding lessons and horse care education tailored to various age groups and skill levels. My responsibilities included designing and implementing lesson plans that focused on developing riding techniques, building confidence, and fostering a safe and enjoyable learning environment. I conducted one-on-one and group sessions, ensuring each child received attention suited to their individual needs and abilities. Additionally, I educated students on horse grooming, tack handling, and stable management, promoting responsibility and a deeper understanding of equestrian practices. My role required strong communication skills, patience, and the ability to adapt to each child’s learning style while maintaining a positive and encouraging atmosphere.
At my core I have a genuine passion and love for working with children, I am currently going back to school and about to undertake a degree in early years education at online school (with a flexible working schedule). I truly believe there is no greater job than raising and supporting the development of children.
