My key responsibilities were ensuring kids had the correct wristband colours, and had an appropriate adult with them in case of an incident or emergency

If there was a child who was injured l'd make sure all the area Surrounded by the child is clear and no further risk of being injured I would also radio to my managers and supervisors to tell them what's going on they would come and assist me we would also inform the parents or guardians to tell them what's happened.

I was also a party host in the role, I had to provide a variety of activities such as singing, dancing, drawing, painting, if any kids had allergies, we would inform the kitchen staff

During the time of working at Jump In, I gained experience such as checking that all equipment were up to high standards and testing all of the equipment before customers entered the building. I had to learn all the procedures and policies to make sure I'm doing everything correctly
