My Summary
About Me
I have babysat before and have had experience working with children in both work experience and as part of my university placement and from volunteer work. I am a 22 year old university student in my final year of a Bsc Psychology course and due to the pandemic I am studying virtually. From my placement last year that I undertook at a special needs school, I hold an enhanced DBS certificate. The year before, I volunteered for an inclusion charity and brought a girl with additional needs to an after school activity to aid her in participating with other children. My work experiences have primarily taken place in primary and secondary school environments, and I have experiences working with children with additional special needs. I have an interest in child development as a part of my course, and get along with children well. I am responsible and also I am an animal lover. I live a ten minute walk from the Holywood town centre. I also hold a qualification in level 3 understanding autistic spectrum disorders, and have finished a level 3 qualification in understanding the speech and language needs in children and young people with behavioural problems.
