About
I have worked in education and childcare for over 35 years, gaining extensive experience with children from three months to 11 years of age. My background includes working in private day care settings as well as primary education, where I managed the breakfast and after-school club alongside supporting the nursery provision. I also have experience working in an office environment, where I was responsible for producing invoices, responding to emails and queries, and dealing with face-to-face enquiries from parents.
In addition, I have led a small team of staff, taking responsibility for recruitment and staff appraisals. More recently, I fulfilled a lifelong dream of moving to the coast and am now looking to apply my experience and knowledge in a different setting. I am a patient, caring, and conscientious person who enjoys working as part of a team.
I believe my skills, experience, and personal qualities would enable me to carry out this role effectively.
