Kaila Trainor - CV

Newry,Down

Summary

I am a motivated and responsible young person with a strong interest in working with people and supporting community-focused activities. Through my experience in childminding and working as an events assistant, I have developed excellent communication skills, the ability to stay calm under pressure, and a strong sense of organisation.

While childminding, I learned how to create a safe and engaging environment for children of different ages. I took responsibility for planning fun and educational activities, managing routines, and building trust with both children and parents. This role helped me develop patience, empathy, and problem-solving skills.

As an events design assistant, I supported the setup and running of various community and private events. This included tasks such as helping with dressing dispalys, greeting clients and working closely with team members to ensure everything ran smoothly. I enjoyed being part of a team and seeing the positive impact of well-organised events.

These experiences have shown me how much I enjoy working with others and contributing to a positive environment, whether that's for children, families, or the general public. I am now looking to build on these skills in a new role or training opportunity where I can continue to grow, learn, and make a difference.

Affiliations

I enjoy creative activities such as arts and crafts, which I often incorporate into childminding to keep children engaged in a fun and educational way. I also have a strong interest in event planning and enjoy helping organise social gatherings for friends and family, from birthdays to small community get-togethers.

In my free time, I like staying active by going for walks, doing light exercise, or playing team sports, which helps me stay focused and energised. I also enjoy listening to music and exploring different cultures through food and travel when possible. These interests have helped me develop strong communication and social skills, and they continue to inspire my interest in working with people of all ages.
