Nanny in Langley, British Columbia

I'm an
Individual
I am student working on my bachelors degree in psychology at Kwantlen Polytechnic University with a love for kids and an interest with those with special needs. I am very animated and have fun and creative ideas in play. I am hoping for more experience with children as I have enjoyed my experiences working with children and those with special needs thus far. I am looking to find part-time to full-time work for the summer while I do respite work on weekends and nights on the side. At the beginning of this year I started at Langley Association for Community Living (LACL) doing respite care with their organization. One child I do respite with is a 12 year old girl with Fibrodysplasia ossificens progressiva - a rare muscle disorder. Another is a 15 year old with autism. The main purpose of respite work is to give the primary caregivers a rest from the responsibilities and attention required to care for child with disabilities. The main goal LACL promotes with respite is to get these children/individuals out into the community - typically in recreational activities, helping them find and get involved in different interests or passions, and providing encouragement and support. At the start of this year I also started volunteering at Blacklock Fine Arts Elementary School assisting in a grade 2/3 split class - mainly helping the children with their reading. Since I've been out of school for the semester I have been nannying for my cousins baby (18 months old), duties including: feeding him, changing his diapers, and taking him for walks. The summer of 2013 I worked at Stillwood Camp and Conference Centre - specifically working in the Beyond Boundaries program (a program designed to integrate children with autism into camp), along with being a camp counselor there.
