Child Development Advisors

Welcome to our CDA Homepage

Hi my name is Kim Smith and I am one of the Child Development Advisors at Rainbow Creek Elementary. I have a degree in Child and Youth Care Counselling and have been working in the field for 20 years.

Our role at Rainbow creek is to support teachers in a variety of ways, and assist students with social emotional learning. This can include one to one, small group, or universal classroom involvement. The approach is strength based and eclectic. RVS and individual schools create rich learning environments and provide supports to help ensure students reach their full potential.
