Our success – people we employ.
Kaptain Mikki:
MICHELLE
Michelle is a mother of 2 (a 17 year old son and an 23 year old daughter). She has had extensive experience with children of all ages working as a Day Camp Counsellor. This is Mikki’s 14th year operating Kidz Kamp. She’s looking forward to seeing all those smiling kids again this year!
Mikki makes sure her 1st Aid / CPR certification is always up to date, including CPR C in which she learns techniques to be used on children.
In 2017, Mikki also took a course for “Understanding & Managing Aggressive Behaviour” to help support the Kid Keepers.
Kommander Dragon:
CHRIS
Chris is a father of 2 (a 22 year old son and an 24 year old daughter). Dragon got his name from his love of the game “Dungeons & Dragons”. He has been an integral part of Kidz Kamp for over 10 years helping us with site set up & take down, field trips, planning and logistics.
Chris has recently taken up diving and is on his way to becoming a Dive Master!
Kommander
Donuts:
Donuts has just finished her first year in teacher’s college at Western Unversity.
Donuts started with us in 2018 at our Mississauga location and will be coming back for her 5th summer; her third year as the Mississauga Site Supervisor! Donuts loves painting and doing arts and crafts with the kids so much that she’s coming back as a Part Time Supervisor!
Donuts loves food…especially trying different foods from around the world!
Kommander
Doodles:
Doodles is a great example of how we “promote from within”. Doodles had been a K.K.I.T. for 2 summers before she joined the team of counsellors in 2018 as a Part Time Counsellor. In 2022, Doodles became a Full Time Counsellor. And this year, Doodles has been promoted to Full Time Site Supervisor in Mississauga!!
Just like her name would imply, Doodles is fun and creative. When you see her, take a look at her socks! Lol.
We can’t wait to see her in her mis-matched socks this again year!
Kid Keeper
Trouble:
Trouble is an example of how much fun we have at Kidz Kamp! Trouble started as a camper when she was 10!! From there, she became a CIT and then a Part Time Counsellor. After 2 years of pleading with her, we finally convinced Trouble to make the leap to Full Time Counsellor!! LoL!! She just can’t get enough of Kidz Kamp!
Kid Keeper
Charizard:
Welcome back Charizard (yes like the Pokémon)!! As Charizard likes to remind Mikki all the time, he is her best “last minute purchase” of 2023. Charizard was our last hire of 2023 when a Full Time Counsellor decided not to cancel their employment with us weeks before the summer started.
Kid Keeper
Swift:
Following in Trouble’s footsteps, Swift started off as a camper…but when he was just 6 years old! Swift spent last year as a K.K.I.T. and did such a fantastic job at it, that we offered him Part Time Counsellor this year!!
Swift is a bit of a health nut and puts his excessive energy into going to the gym and power lifting. Swift also has his black belt! Swift also likes to cook…maybe he’ll bring us something yummy this summer! 😉
