Nikki, professional childminder in St george's

I have excellent organisational and communication skills, which were developed while on school placements where I had to plan and deliver lessons.

I have volunteered at an orphanage in Romania were I had to organise and plan activities for children between the ages of 7 and 19 years old. This experience developed my communication skills because the majority of the children could not speak English and therefore I have the demonstrate the activity to them.

I volunteered at a church lead youth group called Pathwayz for children between 5 and 11 years old. During this experience I developed and lead the children through different activities.
I have just passed the 'How to set up a home-based childcare service' with Pacey and understand the National Minimum Standards for regulated childcare and the Foundation Phase.

I am a qualified Paediatric First Aider.

I am an enthusiastic and patient individual who enjoys working with children and helping them to learn and develop.

I can create a happy, caring, safe environment for children to enjoy and develop.
