Since 2025: I have been working as an activity leader at the Abbaye des Vaux de Cernay, taking care of children during daytime and evening childcare. We play at the kids’ club, and I propose creative activities (painting, colouring, etc.). We also visit the estate’s animals and enjoy the outdoor spaces through games and sports challenges. When the weather is nice, we can also go boating or pedal boating on the lake. I am responsible for meals at lunchtime and snack time, and dinner when needed.
Since 2021: I have been babysitting for families with children aged 6 months and older. I provide age-appropriate activities (board games, puzzles, drawing, painting, park games, etc.) and support them with homework, bathing, meals, and bedtime routines.
July 2025: Activity leader at the Soucy adolescent leisure centre in Fontenay-les-Briis (ages 12–17) for one month. We organised age-appropriate activities, with a different theme each week. We accompanied them on outings to leisure bases and swimming pools. We also delivered workshops on basic first aid and consent, while supporting them throughout daily life and group living.
July 2024: Activity leader on a holiday camp in Cap-Breton for children aged 6 to 14, for three weeks. I was responsible for administering and managing children’s medical treatments as a healthcare assistant and providing first aid when needed. Working in a holiday camp also involves ensuring children’s well-being at all times, proposing suitable activities and games, and supporting them throughout the day—from waking up to bedtime, including showers and meals.
August 2023: Activity leader at the Soucy preschool leisure centre in Fontenay-les-Briis (ages 3–6) for two weeks. I contributed to children’s development by offering a variety of creative, manual, and sports activities. The aim was to provide them with memorable holidays. I also supported them in daily routines, respecting meal times (lunch and snack), quiet time or naps in the afternoon, and hygiene practices such as handwashing before and after meals and after using the toilet.
July 2023: Activity leader on a holiday camp in Porticcio, Corsica, for children aged 12 to 14, for two weeks. I supervised and managed daily life, accompanied water activities (sailing, paddle boarding, kayaking), organised themed evening entertainment every night, and helped establish group rules. I provided constant support throughout the day and night, especially during moments of emotional difficulty, ensuring the children felt safe and creating lasting positive memories.
April – July 2023: Activity leader in nursery and primary schools in Les Ulis. Supervision and animation during school break times, lunchtime in the canteen, and snack time. I proposed mainly sports activities to help children release energy after school hours.
August 2022: Activity leader at the Chevreuse nursery and primary leisure centre. Practical validation placement for my BAFA qualification. I organised age-appropriate activities such as painting, sports challenges, and logic games.
2021: “Tremplin Citoyen” programme – Jean Bertin School in Gometz-la-Ville. My first structured experience in a school environment with children aged 3 to 11.
