Background

About Raye Visser

Hello there,I hope you are having a lovely day! My name is Raye, and I have been in the child care industry for twelve years now. I was employed and trained by Sportball Edmonton and worked with them for six years before making the move to Calgary to attend Mount Royal University.During my years at Sportball Edmonton, I was able to build my interpersonal and communication skills with coworkers, children, and families through relationships I built within the programs. This also gave me the opportunity to build my leadership skills as well. I managed the equipment section in the company which entailed cleaning, sorting, counting, and communication and coordination with other coaches. I was also one of the mentors for the new hires. Throughout my years, I achieved the status of Master Coach, which is the highest level a coach can achieve. Currently, I am attending Mount Royal to receive my Bachelor of Child Studies in Early Learning and Child Care with a minor in religions. This program is extremely hands-on with many practicum placement experiences and tours of other agencies. Much of our work is group-based and we are encouraged to actively work and reflect with each other. We are learning the Flight curriculum and are learning about child-based programs.I am employed with Sportball Calgary at the moment. With this company, I am mentoring new-hires, observing and reviewing coaches, as well as leading classes of my own.
