Welcoem Trisha back onto the team

Here is what Trisha said about herself last year...I'm sure we will have an update soon!

My name is Trisha, I am 25 and have been working with children for 6 years within a day nursery in England. I qualified in 2004 in a cache level 3, diploma in childcare and education and also gained a certificate in food and hygiene as well as holding an up to date 1^st aid qualification.

I enjoy working with all ages of children and providing them with the chance to express themselves and enjoy there time as children. I find there is always something fun and interesting to learn from each age range of children. I love meeting new children and getting to no there individual characters and see there enjoyment on there faces when they have achieved something new and are enjoying the activities which they are taking part in.

During my time in the nursery I worked with the children from as young as 6 months to children of 4 years whom are ready to go off to school. During this time I also worked on my day off as a nanny for 2 children. Where I had to plan daily activities for the children and would take them swimming, to the play park, have picnics and there favourite thing was to build dens outdoors and indoors were they could play and have snacks. I found this as exciting as the children building our own imaginative story as to why we were hiding in the den this was often anything from being cave people and hiding from dinosaurs to a tea party with there other dolls and teddies.

I really enjoy working with children and to see the excitement on the faces when really enjoying an activity, be that painting, drawing, cooking activities or being outdoors exploring and just having as much fun as possible.

I am really looking forward to spending time in the snow, building snowmen, sledging with the children and having over all fun time with the children this season. I am sure we will all have a great time in the snow and look forward to meeting a few of you.

Welcomes Claire to the team

Hello my name is Claire; I am 25 years old from Hastings, East Sussex. I have worked with children since attending college studying for my NVQ level 2: childcare and education. After completing my NVQ level 2 I gained a job in a nursery working with children from 0-5 years. I was a key worker in the nursery working with the pre-school age children and then moving onto being a key worker for the under 2’s in crèche. During this time I was doing my NVQ level 3 early years childcare and education I did this qualification as an apprenticeship. I gained 6 years’ experience working with children during my time at the nursery.

After completing my NVQ level 3 in childcare and education I had taken an interest in travel and decided to apply for a job with first choice, I then attended further training and was employed as an activities instructor and travelled to do a summer session In Spain where I worked mainly with the younger children in the crèche from the age of 11 weeks – 3 years, and the 3-5 year olds, I also had experience in the other age groups up to the age of 11 years. I gained experience of parent and toddler sessions where I really enjoyed getting to know the families and the children.

I enjoy my job in childcare and providing quality activities seeing the results through the children’s enjoyment. And will provide a safe, child centred, learning environment with the children in my care.

What a lovely email to receive today!

"Many thanks for the email. Our ‘Angels’ did a great job for us and the kids last year in Meribel, but alas in February we will be heading off to Canada rather than the Alps.

We would have had no hesitation booking with you again in the future and would highly recommend your agency to our friends.

Hope you have a good season."
