I have worked in childcare form many years now in a pre-school, nursery or childminding I still really love being around babies/children and I find it most rewarding, watching them thrive and grow ready and helping them to develop to move onto a new chapter in their life. Over the years I have done some fostering for a newborn baby social services, and worked for taunton county council as a 'Community Lead Childminder' supporting colleagues, implementing meetings and putting in place training.
