My Summary
About Me
Hello,
My name is Camelia. I am a responsible, capable, and reliable person. I am fit, a non-smoker, energetic and self-motivated. I really enjoy working with children as their simple approach to every day life intrigues me and offers me a chance to learn from them. I have 14 years of childcare experience and FOR the last 8 years I have been working in nurseries as a Senior Manager.
I believe children should be encouraged to explore, to think and to express themselves in different ways; both in the indoor and outdoor environment. As well I believe that learning must be fun and meaningful because the early years of a child's education are crucial for future development.
In this context children will begin to practice essential skills through play, which are both child initiated and adult led. It is important that children gain confidence and develop independence during their early years. From my childcare experience I've learnt that children learn best when they feel it is safe to take risks and are supported in embracing challenges, knowing that there will always be someone nearby to help .
I am open to childminding daycare, Breakfast and After school care, babysitting in the weekend hours.
Pick up and drop off local schools. I am picking up children from Dorothy Barely School, Saint Theresa School and Roding Primary school.
I believe it would be best to meet you and your family in person so you may assess my childcare skills.
Thank you and I hope you would consider me as a suitable candidate to take care of your children
