Summary

I consider myself to be hard-working with a dedicate attitude towards any task I undertake. My ability to work effectively in a team compliments my extensive level of communication alongside my ability to lead and solve problems.


While working as a team leader in a day nursery I have gained a great deal of knowledge and experience, such as delegating to staff members, organising activities, welcoming parents and visitors and chairing meeting with other team members and attending trainings. I am self aware and reflective and continually refining my interpersonal skills in order to be professional.
