My Summary

My Experience

My college course required me to do 2 days a week in a childcare setting and complete 750 hours over the two years in a Pre-School, Primary School in Year 1 and within a day nursery in the baby rooms. I have also volunteered at rainbows in Grappenhall and at Playability (A charity that runs a holiday play scheme for disabled children) where I also completed a paediatric first aid course.

I have worked as a nanny in my gap year (and through lockdown) with two boys aged 8m and 8 years (up to 21m and 9 years when I left). I looked after the baby through the day and went to various groups and activities and picked b8 up from school. Through lockdown I supported homeschooling, planning educational activities to stretch the eldests skills and learning new math concepts, along with large scale projects such as building a football stadium and team.

During my training at norland I have completed a placement in a baby room (4 weeks), within a private school kindergarten class (6 weeks), family placement g18m and b3 (4 weeks), family placement b15m, b3, b6 (4 weeks), family placement b6w, g2 (4 weeks) family placement b15m, g15m, g15m g4 (6 weeks), family placement b11m and g2 (4 weeks), family placement b6m, g3y, g5y, and I have also completed a newborn placement with g12 days+ and have done babysitting for many families in the evenings and weekends.
During term time I had a regular family that I worked for with g7 and g9, I have done school pickups, proxy parenting for weekends at a time and regular babysits.
My Newly Qualified Norlander job started when the little girl was 11 months old, and I have worked for the family for 2 years. With this family I have worked full time going to groups, classes, parks, meal planning and cooking, liaising with grandparents, parents and arranging play dates along with supporting individual needs, transitions and aspects such as potty training.
