I'm fun and optimistic! Looking for work around downtown Ottawa.
| Hi there! My name is Darcy and I just completed my first year at the University of Ottawa. Over the summer I work at a local camp as a one-on-one personal support worker. My main responsibility is integrating my campers into the camp group with other children and ensuring they get breaks when necessary. I've worked with children ages 4-13. I have experience with children who are both verbal and nonverbal, and through my experience with non-verbal children, I've been able to pick up some basic ASL to help communicate with them. I've found a passion working with children who have both intellectual and physical disabilities, and I hope to continue working with them for the rest of my life. I'm an optimistic person who's always up for a challenge and I hope that I can lend you any help you might need in your home!
