Tell us more about yourself and why you have decided to pursue a career in Early Childhood Development:

"I am a young, energetic woman full of life and determined to make my dreams come true. As a mother, wife, and tutor, I have always had a love for children. My decision to pursue a career in ECD stems from this passion. I wish to be a part of children’s growth, both educationally and emotionally.”

What is - from your point of view - the typical role and responsibilities of a childcare provider in an early childhood development field?
”In my opinion, the roles and responsibilities of an ECD teacher include providing a safe space where children can freely express themselves. Planning lessons that are engaging, understandable, and adaptable for children is essential to ensure that the concepts stick with them.“

What makes you excited to work with children?
”What excites me about working with kids is their creative minds. They will learn from me, and I will learn from them. I am thrilled by the opportunity to watch them develop into the people they are meant to become.”
