Annie, garde d’enfant à Darlington

I am just coming up to my 20th birthday and I am studying childhood and youth studies and university, prior to this I received a double award A level in health and social care. I have learnt aspects of milestones and play that is appropriate for this different ages. I have a younger brother who is autistic and because of this I feel I have a good level of childcare as he can be very challenging and a lot of patient is needed to look after him and since he was born I have played a role in his care as both my parents have full time job. During my studies I have put together games and lessons for different areas of development and I think making play education is always a positive thing to do. I feel I am a good carer as I am friendly and reliable, also I am very patient which I feel is important when working with children
