Summary

I am a dedicated and passionate early childhood education professional with practical experience gained during my internship at Giraffe Childcare and as a Saturday educator at Ciranda Ireland. During my internship, I applied the knowledge acquired in the QQI Level 5 in Childcare, Early Learning and Care course, which I am completing at CMIT. I have developed essential skills in childcare, supporting children emotional and social development, and leading educational activities. I am eager to apply my expertise in an educational environment, contributing to the holistic development of children and supporting the team in the teaching and learning process.
