I have had the great opportunity and privilege of working in a nursery. It gave me the chance to gain knowledge and experience working with children of different ages, backgrounds and needs as well as gain experience working within a team. My general duties were to keep on track with the development of key children, cleaning, tidying, organising paperwork, helping to serve and feed meals, comforting the children at nap time, bottle feeds, playing and interacting with the children and helping set up various activities for the children while trying to encourage communication, physical activity and the encouragement of development through play.
I have also worked as a nanny. I worked with a family near Bromley (2 year old boy and 10 year old girl.) My usual duties were playing games with the children, changing nappies, arranging a variety of educational and craft activities each day, light housework duties, getting children bathed, dressed and prepared for nursery, school and drop offs. During the holidays I would also arrange days out such as farm visits, days to the park, Christmas activities and Halloween activities.
