Kate Spence

With a strong background in child-focused programming and a passion for youth development, I bring hands-on experience as both an instructor and caregiver. I’ve led gymnastics and blast ball programs where I focus on safety, skill-building, and creating an inclusive, engaging environment for every child. As a summer nanny, I cared for two young children, organizing creative and educational activities while supporting their overall well-being. My volunteer work at Stanley Park Community Centre reflects my commitment to community engagement, where I’ve helped run events and supported children’s recreational programs. Across all roles, I emphasize mentorship, teamwork, and fostering positive, memorable experiences for kids.

I have strong experience working with children in both instructional and caregiving roles, emphasizing safety, engagement, and development. As a Gymnastics Instructor and Program Assistant at Stanley Park Community Centre, I teach foundational skills in gymnastics and blast ball while fostering a supportive and fun environment. I’m skilled in mentorship, teamwork, and program coordination. My experience as a nanny has strengthened my ability to lead structured, creative activities, manage daily routines, and support children's emotional and physical development. Through volunteer work, I’ve contributed to community events and assisted children with autism, further developing my adaptability, empathy, and communication skills. I work well independently and in collaboration with professional teams to ensure smooth and enriching experiences for children and families.
