  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

    • My role is to look after babies aged 0-2 and record observations on their progress. I am given key children to focus on and I must create a relationship with them and their parents to ensure that the child is cared for whilst they are at nursery.

    10/10
  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

    • Yes. Prior to my training and taking on this role I had not worked in childcare so I have learnt a lot of skills. I have undergone first aid training and many other training programs to make me a well rounded practitioner.

    10/10
  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

    • I enjoy my programme very much. I love to learn new things and I am particularly interested in childcare.

    10/10
  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

    • It is well organised. My tutor is very easy to contact and my sessions are planned well in advance and are fitted to my schedule.

    10/10
  • 5. How much support do you receive from your employer?

    • I receive some support however due to low staff numbers I do not get given much if any time to do any of my work whilst being paid at the setting. This means I have to do all of my training in my own time.

    4/10
  • 6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

    • I receive a lot of support. They are easy to contact and they are able to answer any of my queries very quickly.

  • 7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

  • 8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

    • No. This may be due to COVID but we have no extra activities available.
