“I am a dedicated and industrious individual who firmly believes in consistently going the extra mile and giving my best in all endeavors. My passion lies in assisting children, whether it involves their academic pursuits or any other aspect of their development. A fundamental principle in my approach is to treat each child as a unique and valued individual, recognizing that this is a key element in building positive relationships and fostering their growth.”

”I am qualified in childcare across all age groups. For infants, I have hands-on experience with playtime routines, sleep monitoring, and bottle feeding. For toddlers, I am proactive in managing routines which includes daily activities and introduction to soft and solid foods. For older children, I implement structured routines for mental stimulation and development, and I assist with toilet time.”
What is - from your point of view - the typical role and responsibilities of a childcare provider in an early childhood development field?
”In my point of view, my role will primarily involve ensuring the well-being and safety of children under my care.
