My name is Simone, and I am a 19-year-old college student currently studying Early Years Childcare. Alongside my studies, I have gained hands-on experience working in a nursery with children aged 0-5. In this role, I am responsible for ensuring the children's safety and well-being by carrying out tasks such as cleaning, changing nappies, and supporting their development across all seven areas of learning.I am particularly passionate about fostering a nurturing environment that encourages children's growth and learning. One of my favorite activities is baking, as it not only provides a fun and engaging experience for children but also teaches them valuable skills such as measurement, motor skills, and teamwork. Additionally, I enjoy cooking and reading, which I believe can also enhance children's creativity and cognitive development.I am currently seeking a job and would be grateful for the opportunity to contribute my skills, enthusiasm, and passion for early childhood education to your team. I am confident that my experience, along with my dedication to providing high-quality care, makes me a great fit for this role.
