    I love the field of Child Life and enjoy having this blog to network, learn, and share information with other people who are already in the field, or interested in pursuing a career in it. I post anything and everything from internships, to tips for parents, and Child Life in the news. I graduated from the University of Utah last year with my BS in Human Development and Family Studies with a Child Life Emphasis. I am currently planning on applying for the Child Life Internship at Primary Children's Medical Center in the fall. For readers who are new to the field, Child Life Specialists help to make the hospital experience a less scary one for children and the entire family. They aim to do this by providing step by step procedural preparations including informing the child (in an age appropriate detail) about what they will hear, smell, touch, taste, and see during a test or surgery. Child Life Specialists also provide developmentally appropriate play, distraction during tests, emotional support to the patient as well as the entire family, sibling education and support, and bereavement support if necessary. If you have any questions, comments, or information you would like to see here, I would love to hear from you! Feel free to contact me at sweetblueair[at]gmail.com

Stella & Dot

Published by wordsforeverything at 9:32 am under Uncategorized Edit This

I recently launched a new part time business with the company Stella & Dot. I love it already! You can join me on my Facebook Group and shop for the jewelry here.

Natasha Bib Necklace

We are a company inspired by and created for strong women. Named after the founder’s beloved grandmothers. Stella & Dot honors that generation of women who crossed oceans, rolled up their sleeves, won the vote, raised kids, went off to work, and still found time to bake. They did it with grace and style. Today, this is how they’d do it.

Stella & Dot is THE modern home-based career that your mother never had. We’ve put the power of e-commerce, social networking, and personal service behind an irresistible product. It’s the next big opportunity for our era. And how.

Think getting together with girlfriends, Lucky Magazine, Facebook, and no glass ceiling in sight. Recognized in the New York Times and The Today Show, it’s not only a big idea, it’s a smart business that actually works. So that what you put into it is what you get out of it. How very Stella & Dot.

Black/Silver Bloom Flower Ring

Here’s what makes our jewelry so irresistible:

Couture Design. Designed in New York and San Francisco by award-winning trend-setters who also create jewelry sold in Neiman Marcus and Fred Segal.

Affordable Luxury. With plenty of styles under $50.

Style Statement. A Stella & Dot piece turns the modern girl’s uniform of jeans and a simple top into a smashing look.
