How you’ll spend your time here:
You’ll be helping to provide cover for the children as and when needed. This may be for periods of holiday, sickness, or vacancy gaps. Sometimes you’ll support for a full day, or it may just be a morning or afternoon session. You’ll likely start most of your days with a fully formulated plan. That will soon get completely derailed, but pivoting when circumstances call for it is a regular occurrence in child care. Creativity is key. Teaching young children involves hands-on arts and crafts, storytelling, exercise, and educational games. It’s important to keep things fresh and try new activities to hold children’s attention. Of course we work within the EYFS standards, but that doesn’t stop you from engaging your creative flair and enthusiasm for learning.
