Skills

I have studied psychology and after working 2,5 years in the field as a psychologist in a prison and a mental health hospital I took a turn and followed a new education specializing more into coaching (job-, personal and psychological coaching as well as helping students with their choise of study). I've worked as a volunteer before in India in a home for disabled children over 5 years (1 month per year), I traveled a lot, I have a lot of experience working in cafe's and lunchrooms, I worked in construction for a while, I've been a nanny troughout the years since I was 14 and at the moment I work parttime as a pastry chef. You could say I'm a allrounder, I like many things. I'd like to volunteer somewhere were I could put my skills to use, preferably in an educational/suppportive environment for children-young adults.

Additional info

I am a smoker, I have a drivers license, I am not a vegetarian and I have no allergies.

I am a smoker, but I can live without. Mostly just when I'm out with friends. Never during the day/work.
