I arrived in the United Kingdom in 2002 to pursue my education, and after graduating, I dedicated over a decade to successfully managing online store specialising in infant and toddler products. Following marriage and the birth of my daughter, I expanded my horizons by taking on roles in international student guardianship and hosting. With the arrival of my son during the pandemic, I decided to focus on childcare and concurrently pursued a part-time career as a Chinese language teacher. I also undertook early childhood education coursework and gained practical experience through internships at local kindergartens and part-time babysitting roles. Over the years, I have developed a profound passion for working with children and parents in the service industry, nurturing strong relationships with customers and friends. I am excited to bring my diverse background in childcare and education to a nursery practitioner role in London, committed to providing a nurturing and supportive environment for young children's growth and development.
