Summary
I have always had a strong desire to help others, particularly during their early years. This interest was sparked during my A-Levels in Health and Social Care and deepened throughout my Early Childhood degree. My placement in a preschool solidified my passion for working with children, where I witnessed how early support and nurturing relationships can positively shape a child's development. Through both academic study and hands-on experience, I've developed key skills such as communication, adaptability, and patience. My long-term goal is to work in a child-centred role, where I can make a meaningful impact during the most critical years of a child's life. I am now eager to pursue a relevant master's degree, and a PGCE, to build a strong foundation for a career in education and early years development.
