Natasha Chambers

A caring, reliable and enthusiastic individual with practical experience working as a Nursery Assistant in childcare settings. I have experience supporting young children with their learning, development and day-to-day care, while helping to maintain a safe, welcoming and stimulating environment. I am patient, responsible and approachable, with a genuine interest in working with children and supporting their individual needs.

I also have a strong academic background in subjects including Child Development, Health & Social Care, English, Drama and History. During my time at Haydon Sixth Form, I studied Law, Government and Politics, and Sociology, developing my understanding of people, society and the legal and political systems.
