My Experience
As the Activity Coordinator for a soft play area, I have a passion for creating moments of joy.
There isn't a day where I'm not sing and dancing, creating mess and crafting along with the kids!
I enjoy working with children because of their boundless energy and curiosity. It's incredibly rewarding to witness their growth and development, and to know that I'm playing a role in shaping their futures.
My experience within schools as a trainee Teacher and Exam Invigilator has given me the knowledge to be able to engage learners and actively encourage them to progress and achieve.
