My name is Maya, and I am a recent graduate seeking work to support my upcoming travel plans. I am passionate about caring for children and have broad experience as the oldest child in a large extended family, where I have always been entrusted with looking after my younger cousins from an early age. I hold a valid DBS certificate and have gained hands-on experience working part-time in nurseries with children aged 0-5 over the past year through agencies like Beyond Education and RME Consultants. As an unqualified assistant, I took on responsibilities that included engaging and entertaining the children, supporting them during feeding and mealtime routines, ensuring a clean and safe environment, and fostering independent behaviors like self-feeding, tidying up, and learning. I am friendly, dedicated, reliable, and enthusiastic about providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for children.
