Early Years Apprentice

My Qualifications and Experience:

• Currently working towards level 3 in Early Years
• Paediatric First Aid qualified

My childcare journey:

This began a few years at dance school where I taught lessons to the younger children, it was then I knew that childcare was the career that I wanted to pursue.

My role at Monkey Puzzle:

I am an apprentice currently in the baby room. I help look after the children by following routines and getting involved with their play. I like to do reading, singing, and take part in malleable activities such as sand or playdough.

Why I love my Job at Monkey Puzzle:

I love my job because you make wonderful bonds with the children, and seeing them smile and grow is lovely to observe. It is so rewarding knowing that you are part of that child’s journey of helping them to develop.

What I enjoy doing in my free time:

I enjoy going to the gym, I did beauty before going into childcare so I like to see my clients that I still do treatments for, I also still do my dance classes, and like to go for walks with my friends with the reward of a hot chocolate at the end.
