I have been working with children since the age of 15. i started baby sitting at the age of 15 from children of age 1 to 12. I as well use to be a camp leader at age 15 as well as a camp supervisor working with children ages 5 to 15. I then went on to NSCC and received my Child and Youth Care diploma. This helped me get a job at a residential home, working with children from 12 to 18 years old. I did day to day basics with them such as taking them to their appointments, making meals, giving them their meds, doing different outdoor or indoor activities with them. I as well now work for a morning and after school program with Halifax regional education called Excel. I work with children ages 4-12. I take their attendance, facilitate indoor and outdoor activities with them, chat with the parents, and use my first Aid kit when needed.
