Individual
Hello, my name is Olivia! I have experience working with newborns to 18 years in a variety of settings including home, daycare, school, camp, group-homes and one-on-one. I have been a nanny 3 times over my 15 years of working with children (and it is still one of my favourite roles!)
I started out working with children and adults with developmental disabilities doing program planning for home and school, and encouraging game, daily routine, school and fine motor skills development. From there I moved to working in daycares one-on-one as a PSW for toddlers with autism. I have also worked one-to-one with teens supporting them through work placements, school and managing daily life skills.
I have a background in working with children in the arts; I was the director of a children (and adult) art school, and was an art teacher at a Montessori school.
My most recent work has been tutoring teens and post-secondary students with learning disabilities in english and social sciences. I am also a volunteer crisis responder for Kids Help Phone 4 hours/week. Outside of my working with youth, I teach self-management programs to support people with chronic health conditions.
I grew up travelling South East Asia with my family, and moved back to Canada for my last years of high school. I have experienced a wide variety of different educational systems, and attribute much of my knowledge and love of education to this. I love nature, art, cooking, gardening and being creative. I have a BA with Specialized Honours in International Development Studies, and will be completing my MEd in Curriculum & Pedagogy in fall 2021 at UofT's OISE.
