My name is Erin and I am twenty one years old and have just finished my third year as a student studying theatre in the Phoenix program at UVIC. I am a creative and hard-working individual who is passionate about acting, directing, and writing in theatre and film, with a love for and plenty of experience in childcare. My home is in Burnaby (on the mainland) where I grew up with my parents and two younger siblings, and I am currently living in the Oak Bay area. In September I will move back into residence where I work during the school year as a residence advisor. Over the past year I have also nannied a one-year-old on campus. I love engaging with kids in all sorts of activities, from arts and crafts and imaginative games to spending time at the park and going on other adventures, etc. I would be more than happy to cook/prepare snacks and meals for babies and children and to get cleaning and laundry, etc. done, as well as pet care. I started working as a mother's helper in my neighbourhood in Burnaby at eleven years old, and continued to babysit/nanny for families in my area throughout the rest of my time in high school, until I moved to Victoria to attend UVIC. I still babysit for a few of these families when I am visiting home. I have experience looking after babies and children ranging from infant age to twelve years old, and most of the babysitting/nannying I have done has been for families with two children, however I have also babysat for a family of three children under three. I have experience as a Sunday School teacher and as a counsellor at various day camps, and I work as an RA for students living in residence at UVIC during the school year. I am also the eldest child in my family with two younger siblings who I have cared for often growing up, one of which has special needs. I am very comfortable with cooking/preparing meals for babies and children, as well as doing cleaning/housework and pet care, etc. Current university student in third-year standing at UVIC

I was born and raised in Victoria and come from a family that values community. I live with my fiancé and pet bird, and I like to spend my time being active when I’m not working or taking care of the house. I have always been fond of children, and have enjoyed being a part of my nieces’ and nephews’ lives as the fun aunt that is ready to get involved in which ever activity/play time idea they come up with. I particularly enjoy cultivating a sense of curiosity and adventure. However, just like with adults, I think it’s important to listen and get to know children’s personalities and preferences/dislikes to learn how best to create a safe and happy environment for them to thrive in. I’m also a huge animal lover and I enjoy getting to have the company of any and all animals, and would love to take care of any pets you may have. I have had several nieces and nephews that I’ve babysat over the years. In addition, I’m also a teacher for a kids’ exercise class once a week. My approach to kids is to appreciate the spirit of each child as they are, and to learn about them to engage in activities they find interesting and to encourage that curiosity. I think outdoor play is important, weather permitting, and learning to play indoors with the imagination is also required. I also really enjoy spending time with animals, so if anyone has any pets I wouldn’t mind also caring for them, including taking dogs on walks (even better if we can get the kids out in a walk too!) I have a Masters in Science.

My name is Ava, and I am 22 years old. I am currently an undergraduate student trying to get into the Kinesiology program at the University of Victoria, and moved here roughly two years ago. As I finish up my spring semester, I plan to continue working casually as an animal care attendant at the BCSPCA and take one online course during the summer, but I'm hoping to find a part-time job as a nanny or babysitter during the summer months! I have personal experience with children as an older sister and a big cousin, as well as work experience at a daycare, summer camp, and as a nanny/babysitter. I am certified in Emergency Child Care First Aid CPR/AED Level B and completed babysitting courses during high school. I am comfortable caring for children of all ages and I am also happy to assist with additional tasks such as cleaning, animal care, or tutoring. Aditionally, I have a full driver's license, but unfortunately, I don't have a car of my own. I am very passionate about animals, and in my free time, I enjoy drawing, painting, kayaking, hiking, swimming, embroidering, and folding origami, among other activities. My family and friends would describe me as funny, playful, kind-hearted, empathetic, responsible, and understanding :) I worked as a summer camp leader in my late teens in 2018 and assisted at a daycare facility on an Indigenous reserve for three months in 2023. During the summer of 2024, I nannied for an 8-month-old baby and have continued to be involved in their lives ever since, caring for the now 1.5-year-old and her 5-year-old sibling once a week for a few hours. I love kids and have grown up close to my younger brother and cousins throughout my life.
