I love working with children especially in an outdoor environment. I grew up on a farm and value creative play. I have a big laugh and I love how fresh and funny kids are. I love baking and I would love to help them make something to show their parents and share with others. I am certified to teach English and have a passion for languages. I speak some French and some Spanish. I also love travelling and have experience with it in countries where I've had the opportunity to use both and I would welcome the chance to improve my ability to speak either language. I am certain I can care for your children in a fun and safe manner. I have worked full time at an outdoor summer camp for three years. My responsibilities included caring for and occupying up to 12 children between the ages of 5 and 11 for 8 hours of activities both alone and in a team environment. Activities included games, crafts, sports, land-based water activities, farm animal care, drama skits and team building exercises. I also served lunch and daily snacks as well as a campfire lunch on Fridays. At the same facility I worked as part of the outdoor education team where schools brought classes on a field trip to fulfill various aspects of their science curriculum in a hands-on manner. I was responsible for making my program correspond to the current curriculum, putting together a summary package of the material covered, and accommodating any special requests for material coverage. I've also coached soccer for two different age groups. I worked with my younger brother to run practice and guide games of girls and boys, 6-8 years old. I was responsible for analyzing each child's performance and working with them to improve their game play while maintaining a fun learning environment where the players could develop their own style of play and make frienhds. I also coached a team of 12-14 year old girls with the aid of a parent. I provided feedback to the players and planner drills and exercises to improve their skill level while maintaining interest. Additionally I volunteered at an elementary school breakfast program in downtown Hamilton where I helped cook a healthy breakfast and encouraged children to eat it. I also welcomed the kids and occupied them with various games and activities.
