My name is Laura. I am from Spain and I am twenty three years old.
I did my internship in Edinburgh as a Nursery Assistant for three months, in this class there were two pupils with disabilities (Autism and Asperger syndrome),
I have experience in taking care of children and also in education. As an afterschool teacher I have learned how to manage and organize a class by my own, preparing the lessons and materials that we are going to use. Also I have been a summer camp instructor and because of that I always try to create ludic activities for children.
I was living in North London as an Au Pair for eight months in an English family. In this period I took care of three girls who are one, three and five years old. I did theirs snacks and suppers everyday, helped them getting dressed, assisting with toileting, bath and personal hygiene.

I graduated at the University Complutense of Madrid, my field of study was Early Childhood Education. This degree focuses on the psychological process of children between 0 and 6 years, and within the European Qualification Framework is a level 6. With this degree, I have the bases to be a teacher and also, I have the basic knowledge to treat children with psychological and physical disabilities.
I did my internship in Edinburgh as a Nursery Assistant for three months, in this class there were two pupils with disabilities (Autism and Asperger syndrome), so I have a basic knowledge to do activities with them. That's the main reason that I would like to improve my knowledge in this field, even if there it will be with children and young-adults.
I have experience in taking care of children and also in education. As an afterschool teacher I have learned how to manage and organize a class by my own, preparing the lessons and materials that we are going to use. Also I have been a summer camp instructor and because of that I always try to create my lessons ludic for children alternating between individual and group activities in safe environments (indoors as well as outdoors).
