Angel, garde périscolaire - V6A Vancouver (strathcona / chinatown / downtown eastside)

My background includes excellent experience in ensuring the safety and wellbeing of children ranging in age from newborn through ten years. At the YMCA of Greater Vancouver, I excelled in a three-year role providing overarching child care support in parents’ absence and acquired key skills in organizing recreational activities, preparing and serving snacks, cleaning toys, setting up special projects, and facilitating children’s social development. I have also delivered child care support to numerous families over the past seven years in various babysitting and nannying capacities, using my patient and fun-loving nature to earn children’s and parents’ trust and build long-standing relationships. Additionally, I have key experience helping young children through separation anxiety situations, using distraction and refocusing techniques to help kids through those tough emotions.

A few highlights of my experience include:

- I have experience planning and implementing child care activities that are both fun and educational.

- My 7 years of experience has taught me how to create a good relaxed environment in which children can grow and thrive.

- I have a flexible work schedule so I can be available when needed.

- I have completed courses in first aid for children and know how to respond correctly in emergency situations.

- I excel at balancing multiple tasks while demonstrating superior organization, leadership, and communication skills.

I love children of all ages and I have the experience to provide them with the professional care they deserve since taking care of children is one of the most important jobs around. It’s vital that the caretaker have the knowledge and skills to provide for their safety and well-being. I firmly believe I have the passion, desire and training to be the perfect fit for the job.
