Tell us more about yourself and why you have decided to pursue a career in Early Childhood Development:
"I chose to pursue a career in Early Childhood Development because I have a deep passion for working with children. The opportunity to help shape the minds of the next generation excites me. An ECD educator’s mission is to create a safe and nurturing environment—a home away from home—where children can explore, grow, and expand their understanding of the world, a mission I’m excited to fulfil.“
What is - from your point of view - the typical role and responsibilities of a childcare provider in an early childhood development field?
”The role of a childcare provider in ECD involves nurturing children's creativity and curiosity while guiding them in their exploration of the world around them. We provide the foundational building blocks for their development, ensuring that each child feels supported and valued. It's also essential that we foster an inclusive environment that promotes equality and embraces the diverse needs and backgrounds of all children.”
What makes you excited to work with children?
”What excites me most about working with children is the opportunity to educate the next generation and provide them with a safe environment to grow. Children need a space where they can learn and occasionally stumble. I am happy to support them on their journey and be a part of their development."
