My Summary

My Experience

Nursery Assistant
During my time at the nursery I was involved in the care of children aged 0-1 years. The room I was based in I helped to attend to the children's needs, both physically and emotionally. I was involved in the planning of activities some led by myself and structured the day. I was able to further my knowledge of this age group and the specific needs they hold, aid development with learning, feeding, toileting and exploration. I maintained a great relationship with both children and staff and also parents who I conversed with during pick up times. I was able to use my friendly and approachable manner to address any issues, and enjoyed the responsibility and both independent and team based aspects. I completed tasks to a high standard efficiently and compassionately, and developed great time management and planning skills during a working day.
