My Summary
About Me
I am an easy-going, kind natured and caring person who is absolutely passionate about providing high quality childcare for babies and young children. I have recently moved down to Dorset after living in Essex for the last 25 years to live with my other half and Dorset is my most favourite place in the UK, I love the beaches and all the picturesque places around here
I am a very quick learner as well so i can adapt to all your childs needs quickly and can learn routines quickly to make sure your child is getting the best care possible. I am very hot on children learning through play so I absolutely love creating activities for children to enjoy and learn from.
I am also a passionate musician, I play guitar, piano and am also a singer and I know your little ones would definitely love a good nursery rhyme to join into or even a song they can get up and dance to! I get a great drive from my music and if i can make a child happy from singing and playing music then that's a job well done.
My Experience
I have worked in 3 previous nurseries working with children of early years (0-5) for the last 5 years. Throughout these years, I have a wide understanding of the EYFS (Early years foundation stage), been on numerous training courses such a Safeguarding babies and young children, Health and safety, children's health and well being, I also hold an Enhanced DBS, Paediatric first aid trained and currently learning BSL. I can adapt very well to a childs needs.
I have been a key worker for many different children which has helped with my ability to understand how each individual child develops and to give them the best care they need to achieve their next steps. During my work as a key worker, i have also worked with a social worker in the care of vunerable children.
I have also been a childminder for a family with two children who I had developed very good relationships with.
I am at current studying childhood studies and child psychology at the open university and in three years will be a qualified Child Psychologist and will be training to work for CAFCASS. I am also currently working as support staff at my local nursery to ensure I'm keeping up with my experience.
