About

I am a friendly, patient, and hardworking person with a strong interest in supporting children in their learning. I hold a Level 2 Teaching Assistant qualification and have hands‑on experience volunteering in a local nursery, where I enjoyed helping young children learn through play and daily routines. As a parent of four, I have developed many valuable skills such as understanding children’s needs, staying calm under pressure, organising tasks, and building positive relationships.

I am willing to take part in any further training and am keen to grow within a school environment. I am now looking for a Teaching Assistant role where I can use my skills, learn new ones, and make a positive difference to children’s education.
