@taylajarvis
I create safe, engaging experiences through early childhood teaching, family support, hospitality, and event organization.
South AfricaWhat I'm looking for
At Junior Academy, I've progressed from floating teacher and aftercare assistant to lead teacher for a 3–4-year-old class. I plan routines, support early development through sensory play and motor skills, communicate with parents, and mentor a classroom assistant.
I've also supported private families, worked busy restaurant and bar shifts at Wildebeest Live, and safeguarded visitors at Wild Waters Boksburg. I'm first aid and fire safety certified, and I'm eager to bring my organization, multitasking, and people skills into event organizing opportunities.
