Other than being an actress or doing something on stage, I honestly cannot imagine a better job than being a child life specialist. I just wanna do something where I have the opportunity to change lives.
“Child life specialists are trained professionals with expertise in helping children and their families overcome life’s most challenging events.
Armed with a strong background in child development and family systems, child life specialists promote effective coping through play, preparation, education, and self-expression activities. They provide emotional support for families, and encourage optimum development of children facing a broad range of challenging experiences, particularly those related to healthcare and hospitalization. Because they understand that a child’s wellbeing depends on the support of the family, child life specialists provide information, support and guidance to parents, siblings, and other family members. They also play a vital role in educating caregivers, administrators, and the general public about the needs of children under stress.”

If I can’t get a good job with the movie studio here in Wilmington, my plan is to move to Nashville and work at Vanderbilt as a CLS. I guess I should probably graduate first though…wish me luck!
