About Oliver
Experience: 10 yrs
Hi there! I'm Olly. I believe I'd make a great babysitter due to my background in childcare and education. As the founder of Oxbow Backyard Camp, I created a daily curriculum for kids aged 6 to 13, ensuring a fun and safe environment. My experience as an Assistant Preschool Teacher at Needham Montessori School allowed me to foster a love for learning through engaging art and science projects. I also worked one-on-one with children as a Peer Tutor and Volunteer Art Therapist, using art to enhance their academic and social skills. I excel in communication, building trust, and am organized in planning activities that keep children engaged. Safety is my priority, and I strive to create a nurturing atmosphere. In my free time, I enjoy creating and selling art, baking focaccias, hiking, kayaking, and singing karaoke. Currently, I'm studying women's studies and psychology at Concordia | McGill. With my enthusiasm and adaptable approach, I'm excited about the opportunity to care for children!
Most recent review
“I can’t say enough great things about Teacher Oliver from school! My daughter absolutely adored him during her time there. One day, I dropped her off, and she was feeling a bit shy about trying a new activity. Oliver noticed right away and knelt down to her level, talking to her in such a warm and encouraging way. He suggested they try the art project together, and within minutes, she was beaming and fully engaged! What really stood out was how he embraced the diversity in the classroom. He often incorporated stories and activities from different cultures, making every child feel included and celebrated. It was heartwarming to see my daughter light up when they explored traditions from around the world. Oliver’s genuine care and empathy made a lasting impact, not just on my daughter but on all the kids. He has a special gift for connecting with children, and I’m so grateful for the positive influence he had during her preschool years!”
