Hi! My name is Emily, I'm 20 years old, and I live in the Coquitlam area! I'm a happy, energetic, imaginative, fun loving person! I am great with pets, I even have two dogs myself! I love creative projects, such as arts and crafts, and staying active, by doing things such as walking, biking, hiking, or swimming. For the past year I have been, and currently am, volunteering in the kids ministry at my church. I volunteer as a sunday school teacher 1-3 times a month in our preschool-kindergarten class, our grades 1-5 class, and occasionally taking care of infants in our babies room. In these positions I lead the kids in fun and engaging games, teach lessons, read stories, and distribute snacks! Besides teaching and taking care of children in larger groups, I also have a few years of experience taking care of children through babysitting jobs. I have cared for children ranging from under 1 year of age, up to 11 years of age. In these types of jobs my duties were to play with the kids, make sure homework was done, prepare and serve snacks and/or dinner, tidy the house, change diapers/ bathe children and put the kids to bed. I have training in first aid and CPR for situations that involve adults, children, and infants. I also have my full, class 5, drivers license and a car with room for two car seats in the back! I believe that taking care of children is one of the greatest things that someone can do! I strive to always be encouraging and helpful, and I strive to enforce rules and boundaries that parents have set up for their children in a loving and positive way.
