Gym area/ Work out
In the child care area I usually work with two other staff and take care of 10-15 kids a day. On Mondays and Fridays I work in preschool from 9-10:30 then go back to the daycare room and help out until 11.
In the gym area there is your average work out equipment such as different weights, leg press machine, pull up bar, exercise bikes, rowing machine, a studio room (where some fitness classes are held), and more. I usually work by myself and clean.

Before starting my placement I had my mind set on going into something to do with physical therapy, but now that I've been working with kids everyday I have been seeing and figuring out that I might enjoy going into something to do with child care.
