What jobs have you had?
Wow I’ve had many jobs , my first one was I worked at McDonald’s. I was so shy as a teenager and went there to learn how to be more outgoing. Well to work there you can’t be shy. It was so hard for me at the beginning but I learned to speak up and we used to run competitions during lunch and dinner rushes. I made many friends and it helped me make money for college.
I has a babysitting job and then went into Early Childhood Education. From there I worked in an infant/toddler daycare. It taught me a lot of skills and I had a chance to go to Ottawa and go back to school. I got my diploma there. That was amazing. I loved the daycares I did my practicums in. One of them was a head start program. Wow that was eye opening but my professor told me that the time the children come , make it the best time for them. I taught them how to play with toys and it became a place that helped shaped me into who I am today.
I came back from Ottawa and worked in a preschool in a rough area of town and I worked with teens mom’s. I worked at the University daycare and loved it there. Then I worked a one on one for a boy who had a brain injury. That was an amazing job I got to learn so many skills that has helped me in the job I have today.
Lastly I work in the school district as an Early Childhood Educator working in Kindergarten and Grade 1. It’s challenging but I love it and the skills I’ve learned from all those jobs and my life experience, they have helped me be the best educator that I am today. ❤️
