Experience
I left school at 16 and tried hairdressing for a while but I decided it wasn't really for me. While I was at school I had received some careers advice about working with children and it was something that appealed to me. I had quite a bit of experience of summer jobs looking after children and I felt it was something that I would enjoy and be able to progress with.
Initially I worked in a large day nursery and while there I gained my NVQ qualifications and moved between the baby room, toddler and older toddler and pre-school room.
