James, child care - NR18 Wymondham

My name is James and I am a local student who lives a 15 minutes away from the Norwich area. I have a lot of experience looking after children since I come from a big family which means I've been around children all my life and for the past few years, I have volunteered at various places where I've had to look after kids. For two summers, I helped at my local library with the summer reading challenge which means I've gained skills in making activities fun, thinking of games and I sometimes read with the children whilst their parents were in town.

In addition to this, I have had volunteered at three different kids clubs - one which ran on a weekend, one afterschool on a Tuesday and one during the Easter holidays. Becasue of this, I have learnt how to plan the kind of activities which would appeal to children.
