Personal Statement: Working With Children
I knew from a very young age that I loved working with children. A majority of my previous jobs have involved children whether that be working at a recreational program for elementary school kids, nannying, or working as a patient care assistant at a children's hospital. I have always loved working with children and it is such a privilege to be able to watch the children I work with in any setting grow and develop. I have nannied since I was sixteen and to this day I am still excited every time I get a text from a parent that they need a babysitter. Working with children is so rewarding and it is something I know I will love doing as my career. I now work at a children’s hospital as a nursing assistant and each morning I wake up excited that

    Competency Statement I: Child Care

    I did not design the lunch menu for my center; however, I serve it to my children on a daily basis. We use the CRMC food service, which has many benefits. One positive aspect is that there is no extra cost to the center, and enough food is delivered daily so that each child is served the appropriate proportions. My center works with the hospital to create a “short cycle menu,” a menu that is different everyday and repeats itself after a certain number of days, specifically a one-week cycle menu that is chosen by our director with faculty input. This cycle menu shows strengths because the children seem to enjoy a shorter cycle of fewer foods, and our director is able to control the menu to ensure that quality foods are served. The food served each day includes the food groups required for a balanced diet with whole milk. None of the meals contain potential choking hazards and all food is cut with food scissors for my age group. Each month, our center updates our allergy alert sheet, which is posted in every classroom. The staff complies to each child’s needs everyday at lunch and snack. I would not change my centers lunch menu because it promotes a healthy diet, meets their nutritional needs, and the children like it.…

    Speech Pathologist Personal Statement

    I want to be able to offer my great knowledge and experiences, to one day improve the lives of so many little ones. I have loved working with children from a very young age, ever since I had to technically help my parents with raising my own siblings. And I have had the privilege to currently be employed in a daycare where I am able to work with kids, and observe them in there most natural state. I even find it funny when I catch my self observing these toddlers and preschooler’s speech when they are having a regular conversation; as I try to listen for any misarticulated sounds. Now it has become a natural instinct of mine when I am around…

    Communication and Professional Relationship with Children and Young People

    Consider how the following contexts may affect relationships and the way people communicate: (301 1.3) Social - When in a social environment you are more than likely around people who know your personality and how you communicate, perhaps jokes, dramatic notions, being loud or quietly thoughtful may be ways in which you use your communicational skills. The friendship you have means people will want to spend time with you and will understand and accept your ways, thus conducive to a comfortable relaxed atmosphere. You may go out with work colleagues on a social basis, you would then err on the side of caution using politeness, and a more relaxed professional behaviour until you get to know their sense of humour and personalities. Social media needs to be included here as it is a popular way to communicate with friends, however caution needs to be taken that privacy settings are enabled, to avoid the whole world being able to see your photos can comments. Professional : At work, in meetings, talking with parents, members of staff / students / outside agencies, all require professionalism. The way you would conduct yourself would be in a friendly, respectful, formal manner. Keen listening skills are important. Interest and understanding should be shown by you in body language, questions, answers and possible solutions. Any issues should be dealt with calmly in a non- threatening tone. Email is a common way to communicate on a professional level but care needs to be taken as to how you express certain conversations to ensure the wording is correct as conversations can be misinterpreted if emails are too blunt as body language cannot be appreciated here. Also the speed to which we reply to phone calls or emails is important as to how another person perceives you on a professional…

    Perspective on Health Care: New to Health Care

    Since I was a little girl, I always have had a fascination in the dental field. I was one of those rare people, who throughout my life always enjoyed going to the dentist. I was enrolled in Palomar Dental School and was scheduled to start the dental assisting program, but God had another plan. It was later that year that I finally conceived, after trying for 13 years. Because I wanted to stay home and raise my son, I could not attend school on a full-time basis. I feltl that completing my degree in the health care management field, I will be able to get my foot in the door and someday work in a dental office. I would also love to work in the pediatric field. Whether it be in the dental field of pediatrics, or in a hospital, I think working with children would be a very rewarding job. As a mother of two, I can relate to the anxiety of parents taking their children in for dental work, or healthcare, and I think it would be nice to put the parents and children at ease with my concern.…

    Pediatric Nursing Career

    Two professions that could be a possibility for someone who loves working with people especially children but also the health career world would be pediatric nurse or physical therapy assistant. Both of these are very rewarding careers and are never the same from a day to day basis, so if you worry about having a job that gets boring after you get the experience you want, there’s nothing to worry about with these because every day there will be something different you are looking at to working with. I personally would like to work in both professions because I think that if one wanted to they would be able to incorporate both professions into an everyday job.…

    Pediatrician Personal Statement

    Up until a few short years ago, I admit that I was dead set on becoming a pediatrician. I knew from a young age that I really enjoyed working with kids, perhaps because I was the oldest of three in my family or because I always found myself volunteering for activities and projects that involved working with children. I was good with kids, and most of them seemed very comfortable around me. The idea of dedicating my future career to children just seemed to “fit.” As I made my way through college, I had the opportunity to participate in research and volunteering that solidified my decision to become a pediatric physician.…

    Personal Narrative: My Experience At Nationwide Children's Hospital

    I think my service at Children’s is very important because I have contributed a lot of time and energy. I enjoy it very much and I am glad I started volunteering there. Saturday February 27 was different because I had to deliver mail to the NICU and that experience was surreal. As I walked around in the unit, I saw many premature and newborn infants with various tubes and wires stuck to them. Nurses were carrying the babies and parents were asleep holding their babies’ hands. The entire unit was dim and the only sounds I could hear were the beeping of the machines the babies were hooked up to or the faint murmurs of the doctors talking to the parents. I have always known that I wanted to pursue a career in the medical field, but at that moment, I knew I wanted to specialize in Neonatology, medical care of newborn infants.…

    Childhood Education Personal Statement

    I tutor elementary school children at the Granada Hills Branch Library in my spare time. I enjoy working with children because I admire their candor and energy. Moreover, I take pride in organizing activities in which the students learn work habits and the current material. For example, I let the children solve problems collaboratively and have them explain the answers. Contributing to my community makes me feel a deep sense of satisfaction because I love the spark of intelligence I see when a student answers a tough problem. My goal when I tutor is to hopefully ignite the minds of the youth into an inferno of knowledge, because education is a priceless…
