I came to childcare in 2013 on an apprenticeship. Within a couple of months, the Beacon Nursery took me on as an apprentice which started officially in May 2014. I have therefore been in childcare for 6/7 years from training. I have a Level 3 Diploma in Early Years Education. I have also completed the 1st year (Level 4) of the Foundation Degree in Early Years.

Childcare motivates me so much to learn and develop my knowledge of children. I aim to inspire and excite children’s learning on a daily basis. It is important that children feel safe and secure to allow them to open up and express themselves. A rich learning environment provides opportunities for children to learn and grow through their play, friendships and relationships with familiar adults.

Safeguarding policies are relevant to all members of staff within a nursery. Everyone has a responsibility to the safety and wellbeing of the children in their care.
