My Summary
About Me
My name is Soraya Riat I am 20 years old, I am living in Norwich and currently a student at UEA doing a BA in philosophy. After university, I intend to do a PGCE in primary teaching.
I have extensive experience working with children, having worked full-time in a nursery and engaging in training, babysitting, and nannying roles. Growing up in a busy household as one of four siblings and now a proud aunty of two, instilled in me a deep passion for childcare, filled with love, fun, and lively interactions.
I was primarily based in the baby room, but I have experience with all ages, as I regularly covered in different rooms.
My goal is to create a fun, stimulating, and safe environment for all children in my care. I am active, creative, and enthusiastic, enjoying outings to parks, museums, and farms, as well as engaging in arts and crafts activities.
I am first aid trained and hold a qualification in safeguarding children and have experience with SEN needs. I strive to build open, collaborative relationships with families and parents. In addition to my experience, I truly enjoy working with children. I excel in this area, and my years of professional experience, combined with my passion for childcare, enable me to provide exceptional care for families and children.
Along with my practical and academic qualifications, I also enjoy traveling, cooking, and listening to music. I would be more than happy to share more about myself and my experience.
