After School Care Strathaven

| I have worked in an after school for children ages 4-12 in which I prepared healthy snack, engaged in activities that encouraged teamwork and creativity, and ultimately ensuring their safety. I am also first aid trained, and in my spare time I like to cook so can easily make meals that kids will love.

| I am very outgoing, a bubbly I have a lot of experience of working with kids.. I volunteered for 3 years at primary schools all over South Lanarkshire during holiday and after school with pupils p1-p7 we done arts and crafts sports and dance activities and often some baking.

| I have worked in the care sector for 8 years and have accumulated a vast knowledge in many areas. I began working in a kids club in Virgin Active and once I gained my qualifications I began working in nurseries and after school clubs. I enjoyed my role within the nurseries and have gained experience in all age groups. I have also worked as a support worker within the community, assisting people with their own individual needs such as autism and Down syndrome. Through doing this role I have worked in many different home environments and I have become comfortable with a fast paced work routine.

| I've been involved in scouting since I was 8years old and a leader since I was 18, working with all sections so children aged from 6-17. I am enthusiastic about the outdoors and love going to explore and teach those skills that not everybody knows. I am currently section leader for scouts so have to do a lot of the organising and planning of weekly meetings as well as paperwork and camps. I there do think I have good time keeping and I'm a well organised person. In 2019 I lived in san Francisco where I worked as an au pair and took care of two children (8 and 10). My main duties included getting the children up and ready in the am, taking them to school and after school activities, preparing meals, tidying their rooms and doing laundry, as well as walking the family dog. I had a really fun and engaging relationship with the children but when required could be strict and they'd listen. I had to drive the family car which I found no issue with. I currently work in a nursery where I am in the 2.5 and under room; we have children from as young as 4 months right through to 2.5years. For this role I care for the children and plan age appropriate activities as well as assisting with feeding, sleep and changing.

| I am a fun, friendly and reliable young women who loves working alongside and caring for children. I have an up to date disclosure and I'm registered with the SSSC. After leaving school I studied childcare at college for 2 and a half years and received my intermediate 1 qualification in early education and childcare, my national progression award in play work and childcare and part of my NC higher early education and childcare qualification. During my time at college I worked in various different nurseries, caring for children of all different age groups. Since leaving college I have worked in an after school care for 2.5 years and then in a nursery for 6 months. I also worked as a child minder for a family on and off for a couple of years. I currently work as a play assistant in a play centre in Hamilton and have worked there for almost 2 years. I work alongside all age groups and carry out educational and fun activities. I also have many pets in the family and my own dog so plenty of animal care experience.
