My name is Brittany and I am currently attending Guelph University for Child, Youth, and Family. I am looking foreword to a future in working with children and families around York region or Toronto in my future. I chose this program because I find I am good with all kinds of people and I have a special wanting to help and nurture everyone around me. I am great with children as I have an 8-year-old sister whom I am very close with and helped parent growing up. I also have babysat since I was 13 and am very responsible. I was a Nanny for a year with two young children with autism, I worked full time with the family and adapted quickly. I then worked during the school year as a Nanny to two children while balancing school. All the experience I have obtained over the past few years has broadened my knowledge immensely. I love children so much and getting the chance to help them and witness them grow and achieve is amazing and is what inspired me to go into my program in university. I am currently working with a 13 year old with severe autism once a week and helping her with her social skills.
