Summary
I worked in the field of education for many years and have also brought up 3 children. When the children were small, I enjoyed helping out at their playgroup and taking part in their activities.
I taught French at the local primary school, Ysgol Goronwy Owen for a few years and was a volunteer reader with the children. I also did some lunchtime supervision which I enjoyed.
I'm aware that it's important for children to be cared for in a safe environment and should be cared for accordingly.
I hope I am a safe pair of hands with interesting ideas for a variety of activities with attention to day to day routines.
I am at intermediate level Welsh and can understand more than I can speak. I'm happy to take any courses to improve my knowledge.
