Early Childhood Educator in Toronto, Ontario

I am confident that my experience working as an Early Childhood Educator and Elementary Teacher, combined with the skills and knowledge from my educational background, have prepared me to excel in this position. As an Early Childhood Educator, I was responsible for programming, ASQ’s, ISP’s, daily electronic reports, connecting with the community, dealing with educational and governmental agencies, working effectively with staff and families, and performing all activities related to the day-to-day operation of a play based Child Care Centre following the ELECT model. This has given me a great understanding and sensibility to their needs and expectations. At the Wellington Early Learning Centre, I excelled expectations by introducing nature-based education. At the Mississauga YMCA children’s programs, my drive, innovation, and high work ethic transferred me from a part-time program instructor to a full-time Early Childhood Assistant position at their daycare in the period of four months. From both experiences, I have developed creative and flexible skills that I utilize when addressing simple to complex specific issues and I have learned the importance of fun learning. Given the often- sensitive matters dealt with in my previous roles, I understand the value of timely diplomatic, effective action. My experience working with diversity has developed my sensibility for multicultural differences and recognition of its importance to the community. Thank you for taking the time to review my application. I truly appreciate your consideration for this position and look forward to further connecting with you. Best Regards, Jacqueline Lima
