I've been fortunate in my career to have had opportunities for different and diverse experiences. I've worked with children and families from the prenatal stages all through to youth at risk and family support. I've had training and worked with children with many different extra support needs or challenges. Speech and language, behavioural, physical, emotional and cognitive to give some examples. I’ve been working in the childcare field for 23. I spent a huge amount of time on my uncles farm nestled in the Purcell Mountains and rode horses nearly every day until I moved to Calgary. Camping is a must in my life I was lucky enough to have been given the gift of the outdoors from my family. The skills I learned have stood me well in life and going to the mountains recharges me! I really enjoy living in Calgary although I am a small town girl at heart (I grew up in Kimberley BC). I love animals and being an Animal Rescue Volunteer. Early Childhood Education is my chosen career! I take pride in my field and strive for positive change and growth always! Communication with families is key for me if you need information or have questions please ask away!! Oh and did I mention how amazing it is to work with children?! ;) Ashlee Sims Child Development Supervisor ECED IT SN
