My Summary
About Me
I am a fun, creative person who loves to help children learn and explore the world. I’m keen on outdoor play and getting children involved in physical activities such as arts and crafts. I believe in allowing Children to have a good balance of child led play and organised activities but I understand each child is different and requires and likes different things so I will always adapt my practice to fit the child and parents needs. I’m also keen on healthy eating and allowing a child to exercise themselves physically and mentally.
I am 23 years old and have recently finished my Degree in Early Childhood studies at Chichester university. I am now studying at the University of Sussex for my masters.
A general insight into me-
-I love movies and tv shows. Especially Marvel and disney
-Big fan of all animals
- special interests include movies and shows, singing, baking and cooking, reading, picnics and outside time!
-love the colour green, dinosaurs, space and all things bright and colourful!
My Experience
As I stated before, I have just finished studying Early Childhood studies at Chi Uni but I have lots of experience in the past (please check my qualifications below)
I have experience working in nurseries, primary schools and special needs primary schools, as well as having worked as a baby sitter for many families and also my own as I have many younger cousins and I have been nanny in the past for 3 girls supporting them through a transition of their parents divorce and trying to keep everything as normal as possible.
My age range I have worked with spans from birth-16 years which does include a lot of experience in special education needs due to working in a primary school for children with mental & physical disabilities during covid
If the family also has pets, I am more then happy to tend to pets if needed, but will have to discuss a small extra fee for things like dog walking etc if needed ?
