I am an enthusiastic, out going, like to the job done type of person.
| Hello my name is tara, I have been working with children pretty much my whole like, I grew up looking after my nieces and nephews on a daily basis, cleaning, changing, activities etc. I have a diploma in child care and education level 3. This was an amazing course to go on as they allow you to work in nursery and schools ages from 0-7 years. I have been placed in 3 different nurserys/schools and all have taught me so much e.g. Teaching children necessary education, providing stimulating activities I have made for them and also going though a meal routine. Each setting I've been placed in has been for over 6 months, so I have a great understanding how it all works and how to really stimulate kids to their potential. I absolutely love working with children, it has been my dream since I was little and I can't wait to be able to portray my skills.
