From a young age I have always been around children as my mum was a childminder, this is where I discovered my passion for working with children and realised that I wanted to make a career out of that passion. I gained a lot of experience with children through spending time with my 5 nephews. I have regularly cared for my youngest nephew since he was one month old, which I have loved every minute of as there is no greater feeling than watching each milestone be accomplished and watch as a child’s personality shines through. I also worked at a nursery where I worked with children from 3 months through to age 5. This was such a rewarding job and really taught me how each individual child is different and have their own unique personality.
