S4YC @ Stanlaw Abbey Children's Centre

During my time in childcare I have worked across the ages from birth to five years and have developed a sound knowledge of children’s needs and care routines.

Hi, my name is Beth, I have been working with children for the past 8 years and in that time I have completed both my Level 3 early years qualification and my teaching degree. I have also gained a degree in children's mental health and SEND, this is an area I am especially passionate about. I have loved working with children aged 0-5 during my career and argue the children have taught me more than any qualification could!

I have worked in childcare on and off since 2012 in between having 3 of my own children, I am level 3 qualified and have SEN experience. I have worked at Stanlaw since February 2023.

I am currently completing my level 3 after becoming a room leader in the nursery, following on from my level 2. I absolutely love my job and have been here in the setting for a long time, so I feel I know the children and their needs well. My favourite thing about working in Stanlaw is seeing the children engage in all of the amazing activities we create for them.

In my free time, I enjoy shopping and spending time with my family.

I look forward to meeting you all and completing my apprenticeship with your wonderful children.
