Senior OSC Staff
Dustin Ng | Child Development Coordinator
Dustin started with West Richmond Community Centre in 1999 as a summer daycamp volunteer. He found the experience so fun and rewarding that he never left! Since then, Dustin has worked in sports camps, youth camps, summer camps, special events, preschool programs and out-of-school care programs, across nearly all age groups.
Dustin served as the Acting Director of Child Care Services from September 2013 to August 2014 and from January to December 2015. He considers himself a “play specialist” when it comes to working with children. His favourite activities include building large structures with toys and being chased around the playground.
Dustin has attended countless hours of child related workshops and is known to deliver the occasional workshop himself. In his spare time, he enjoys road cycling, eating soup noodles and being a tv connoisseur. When asked if he wants children of his own, Dustin used to reply, “I already have hundreds at work!” He relented and welcomed his first child in 2014.
Matt Hewitt | Child Development Head Supervisor
Matt first started working with children in 2008 as an assistant leader in summer day camp programs with City Centre Community Association. He soon realized where he needed to be - in programs with children. Matt has worked as an annual instructor in a variety of programs during the fall, winter and spring months through to 2014 which included sports classes, drama classes, winter and spring break camps and after-school programs. During the summers of 2010-2014 he worked as a supervisor with City Centre in both their senior and junior aged day camps. He joined the West team in fall of 2014 and hasn't looked back since.
When he is not in programs, you can find Matt kicking around a soccer ball, doodling on a notepad, trying to spike a volleyball, taking a nap or two, or spending quality time with friends and family. Matt is incredibly thrilled to be a part of this awesome team and to be able to work with such an amazing group of kids.
